The Tubman Command

The Tubman Command

by Elizabeth Cobbs

Set against the grim backdrop of the Civil War in May 1863, "The Tubman Command" is the stirring tale of Harriet Tubman, the legendary Underground Railroad conductor known as 'Moses'. Facing overwhelming odds and dangers, she embarks on a daring mission behind Confederate lines to lead a monumental raid on a plantation. Her aim is to liberate more than 750 slaves and enlist them in the Union cause. Overcoming threats from alligators, treachery, and the fearsome artillery of Fort Sumter, Tubman's strategic prowess and indomitable spirit shine through. Author Elizabeth Cobbs brings to life a narrative brimming with suspense and emotional depth, where Tubman's challenges include not just her enemies but skepticism from within her own ranks as well. This novel is not only an homage to an American hero's quest for justice and freedom but also a poignant exploration of human resilience, sacrifice, and the meaning of liberty.
