In this book, Karen Woods Weierman complicates Boston's identity as the birthplace of abolition and the cradle of liberty, and restores an enslaved six-year-old girl named Med to her rightful place in antislavery history by situating her story in the context of other writings on slavery, childhood, and the law.
