Amos Fortune
Elizabeth Yates Audio Book

Captured by slave traders when only fifteen, At-mun never forgot his roots as a prince. Nor did he ever lose his princely dignity and the courage to hold his head high. Sold at auction in America and haunted by the memory of his young sister left behind in Africa, At-mun, now Amos, began his long march to freedom. "It does a man no good to be free until he learns how to live," he often said, and Amos Fortune left a legacy of freedom for himself and others that has immortalized his touching story for us all. Newbery Award-winning author Elizabeth Yates and award-winning narrator Ray Childs bring this true saga alive as they guide us through one man's transformation from At-mun, prince of the At-mun-shi, to Amos Fortune, Free Man.
