Godmother of the Famous 54th Massachusetts Regiment

- Harriet Tubman's Most Forgotten Role in the Civil War

Bag om Godmother of the Famous 54th Massachusetts Regiment

The dramatic story of the forgotten relationship between Harriet Tubman and the North's first black regiment, the famous 54th Massachusetts Infantry, was a meaningful one. Tubman was so closely connected to the "Glory" regiment that she deserved the title as the Godmother of the 54th Massachusetts. Harriet also formed a close relationship with the regimental commander, Colonel Robert Gould Shaw, who was killed in the assault on Fort Wagner. Tubman served the last meal to Colonel Shaw, before he became a martyr and an idol to the abolitionist community across the North. For the first time, this ground-breaking book tells the full story of Tubman's close connection to Colonel Shaw and his elite regiment during the struggle to destroy slavery.
