Running a Thousand Miles for Freedom: The Escape of William and Ellen Craft from Slavery
"Running a Thousand Miles for Freedomis the most significant fugitive slave narrative to come out of Georgia. I know of no other account that provides as riveting an account of an actual escape experience. It offers so much more in its treatment of gender and racial role-reversals, of husband-wife and master-slave relations, and of abolitionist activity on both sides of the Mason-Dixon line.”--Georgia Historical Quarterly
