Winner of the 2024 Pulitzer Prize for Biography and named one of the best books of the year by The New York Times, The New Yorker, Time, NPR, Smithsonian Magazine and Oprah Daily, this biography is about Ellen and William Craft, “an enslaved couple who escaped from Georgia in 1848, with light-skinned Ellen disguised as a disabled white gentleman and William as her manservant, exploiting assumptions about race, class and disability to hide in public on their journey to the North, where they became famous abolitionists while evading bounty hunters.” — The Pulitzer Prizes
