Tubman
was born into slavery in Maryland but escaped through
the Underground Railroad to Pennsylvania in 1849. She
then became the most famous leader of that network,
aiding slaves in their escape to free states and Canada.
She was known as "Moses" to the hundreds of
slaves she helped to freedom and the thousands of others
she inspired. She was never caught and never lost a
slave on the route to freedom.
