Straight-talking and unsentimental, Truth begame an early national symbol for strong Black women--indeed, for all strong women. In this modern classic of scholarship and sympathetic understanding, eminent historian Nell Irvin Painter goes beyond the myths, words, and photographs to uncover the life of a complex woman who was born into slavery and died a legend." -- Back cover.
