Synopsis

Running a Thousand Miles for Freedom by William Craft and Ellen Craft is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. The narrative details the harrowing escape of a married couple, William and Ellen Craft, from slavery to freedom, underscoring the oppressive conditions faced by enslaved individuals in America.
In 1848 William and Ellen Craft made one of the most daring and remarkable escapes in the history of slavery in America. They travelled north by rail and river, they faced and overcame many obstacles and dangers before they reached Philadelphia. Once there, despite help from many, they find that prejudice continues to block the freedom they crave. As they make their way to their final destination in England, they continue to face racism and societal challenges.
The fascinating and moving memoirs of American slaves, Running a Thousand Miles for Freedom gives insight into the life and plight of slaves in the 18th century.
