As a fugitive slave, Harriet Tubman had been clever and wise enough to find a way to freedom, not only that she conducted groups of other slaves out. Harriet used the underground railroad to lead the slaves to safety and in efficient time. She had different routes to take in case anything major happened on the way. No matter what route she took she always picked up slaves to take along. Harriet managed to free 800 slaves in one day. It’s amazing to look back at her achievement on how she freed the slaves.
Harriet was 22 when she made her first rescue and 32 when she made her last. Over those ten years she saved 38 plus slaves and didn't get caught and her biggest “pick-up” was in Dorchester CO.,Md. With 11 slaves. Some of the times of years were in December, Spring, Fall, and Summer. The best time to start an “abduction” is on Saturday nights because the slaves had a rest day the following day. This event had been an achievement because Harriet Tubman had successfully escorted slaves out to safety efficiently and safely. …show more content…
Now the quickest way from the farthest point from Canada is about 115 miles and the directions are very scattered. If HT would travel from Bucktown to Philadelphia, she would start by heading north to East New Market, then to Poplar Neck. Following the the railroad, she would head Northeast to Dover then North to Wilmington. Then Northwest to Kennett Square and lastly East to Philadelphia. Harriet Tubman really made sure her group of slaves got to safety. One of her routes took them to Albany then to St. Catherines HT could have stopped at Albany but she didn't. This document showed enough evidence to say that it was an achievement because of the routes that Harriet took to get the slaves to a promise
