            |  Harriet Tubman, known as Moses to the many slaves she rescued, makes 
			a point in her narrative.

            |  Harriet Tubman could not read or write, so she 
			askes Bill Donath to read from her biography. As Donath reads, 
			Harriet verbally underlines the important parts. She memorized the 
			book, penned by a friend.
