Harriet Tubman was one of the most famous conductors on the Underground Railroad, a secret network of safe houses, routes, and abolitionists who helped enslaved people escape from the American South to free states and Canada.
After escaping slavery herself in 1849, Tubman repeatedly risked her life by returning to slave-holding states to guide others to freedom. Historians generally credit her with personally leading about 70 enslaved people to freedom through approximately 13 rescue missions, while many others escaped using information and instructions she provided.
