MENDHAM, N.J., April 26, 2016 /PRNewswire-iReach/ "I was shocked to read about how many people have criticizedHarriet Tubmanand her son's claims over how many slaves were actually saved by Mrs. Tubman," said authorMichael Jay Nusbaum. "I was so happy to learn that Mrs. Tubman had actually saved over 700 slaves in one single raid into Confederate territory. This one instance alone proved that the claims made by Mrs. Tubman and her son were true. Thus, I felt the need to tell the story and put to rest any questions about this amazing woman- Mrs. Tubman."

After extensive research of African American History as well as being politically and socially active for civil rights, Nusbaum wrote "Ere Aworan" (published by Xlibris) to further the discussion of the story of slavery in America.

A story of the Underground Railroad, slavery, love, hope and redemption, "Ere Aworan" follows Osumaka and his family who are abducted fromAfrica. It portrays Osumaka's perspective as they were separated and sent into slavery as well as his experiences through the Middle Passage. Ultimately, Osumaka escapes into the Underground Railroad only to meet and join forces withHarriet Tubmanin the fight for freedom.

Though a work of fiction, "Ere Aworan" is based around real historical events, and its narrative could still teach readers about the history of slavery around the time of the Civil War. It is Nusbaum's hope that, in reading this story, his readers will not only learn about the Africa Squadron and realize how activeHarriet Tubmanwas in fighting for the Union and for freedom but also continue the dialog of slavery in America.
