Synopsis
In the year 1761, a young German girl named Sally Miller is kidnapped from her home in the Palatinate region of Germany and sold into slavery on the Gold Coast of West Africa. She is then transported across the Atlantic Ocean and forced to work on a plantation in South Carolina.
Sally's story is one of unimaginable hardship and resilience. She endures unimaginable horrors, including sexual abuse, physical brutality, and the loss of her family. But through it all, she never gives up hope. She finds ways to resist her enslavers and to maintain her humanity.
In 1788, after spending more than two decades in slavery, Sally finally gains her freedom. She returns to Germany, where she is reunited with her surviving family members. She spends the rest of her life telling her story, advocating for the abolition of slavery, and helping other survivors of the slave trade.
The Lost German Slave Girl is a powerful and moving account of one woman's extraordinary journey of survival and resilience. It is a story that will stay with you long after you finish reading it.
