Biography of a rare freed black women before the civil war. Provides a new and different perspective on freedom and slavery. Highlights the separation of families as a result of slavery and the hardship that Clara faced (like walking to Colorado from St. Louis) even though she was freed. Lovely examples of how Clara helped freed slaves, and then when she needed it, how the community helped Clara. Could lead to good dialog about women running businesses or being business owners - and the associated stereotypes. Nice counterbalance to 'typical' portrayal of African American women. ( )
