A gripping account of the five African American soldiers who fought alongside John Brown at Harpers Ferry.

Eugene Meyer shines a light on the forgotten stories of John Copeland, Shields Green, Dangerfield Newby, Lewis Leary, and Osborne Perry Anderson, revealing their motivations, sacrifices, and lasting impact on the fight for freedom. From their diverse backgrounds to their unwavering commitment to abolition, these men challenged the very foundations of slavery in 19th-century America.

Five for Freedom explores the complex racial dynamics of the era, the legacy of John Brown's raid, and the ongoing struggle for racial justice. Discover the courage and resilience of these unsung heroes and their enduring relevance in today's world. For readers of American history, Civil War studies, and anyone seeking inspiration from the fight for equality.
