How many slaves did she rescue all together?
In 1857, Harriet went back to Auburn, New York and freed her parents from slavery; slave owners offered thousands of dollars for her arrest. They never captured Harriet or any of the 300 slaves she helped liberate before the American Civil War (1861-1865). During the civil war, Harriet didn't stop rescuing slaves, on a military campaign along the Combahee River in South Carolina, she helped free more than 750 slaves.
