Ellen and William Craft were a married couple who escaped from slavery in 1848 when Ellen disguised herself as a white, literate man and William pretended to be an accompanying slave. This is their story of their escape to freedom. NB Listeners may find some scenes of abuse and vocabulary in this book distressing. (Summary by Newgatenovelist)
