Outgeneraled and outgunned, a demoralized Union Army has pulled back with massive losses at the Battle of Chancellorsville. Fort Sumter, hated symbol of the Rebellion, taunts the American navy with its artillery and underwater mines. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn Beaufort, South Carolina, one very special woman, code named Moses, is hatching a spectacular plan. Hunted by Confederates, revered by slaves, Harriet Tubman plots an expedition behind enemy lines to liberate hundreds of bondsmen and recruit them as soldiers. A bounty on her head, she has given up husband and home for the noblest cause: a nation of, by, and for the people. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Tubman Command\u003c\/i\u003e tells the story of Tubman at the height of her powers, when she devises the largest plantation raid of the Civil War. General David Hunter places her in charge of a team of black scouts even though skeptical of what one woman can accomplish. For her gamble to succeed, \"Moses\" must outwit alligators, overseers, slave catchers, sharpshooters, and even hostile Union soldiers to lead gunships up the Combahee River. Men stand in her way at every turn--though one reminds her that love shouldn't have to be the price of freedom. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIt's the perfect read before going to see the big new movie about Harriet Tubman, \u003ci\u003eHarriet \u003c\/i\u003e(November 2019) starring Kasi Lemmons, Cynthia Erivo, and Janelle Monae.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Cobbs, Elizabeth\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/21\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Arcade Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781948924344\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.20w x 1.10d","brand":"Elizabeth Cobbs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39467467276363,"sku":"9781948924344","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0021\/1697\/6715\/products\/img_fb5f2a28-c282-4a45-891d-0b2c1f622dc8.jpg?v=1628609919","url":"https:\/\/blackbookstore.com\/products\/the-tubman-command-9781948924344","provider":"Black Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
