Abigail Mott was a Quaker and abolitionist from New York who, along with fellow Quaker M. S. Wood, has compiled a provocative collection of stories of  “Colored Americans.”  They range from well-known figures such as Phillis Wheatley and Sojourner Truth to the common men and women who give poignant insights of their life.  Selections consist of short anecdotes, essays, stories, letters and poetry. Many have strong religious and spiritual themes. - Summary by Larry Wilson
