      The first few pages of this biography have the feel of historical fiction, but it is soon clear that this work is well-researched nonfiction. Despite a somewhat flat writing style, Weidt offers a solid introduction to the life of one of the great abolitionist leaders in African-American history. The text is accompanied by black-and-white line drawings. Bib., ind.
