Driven toward Madness: The Fugitive Slave Margaret Garner and Tragedy on the Ohio - New Approaches to Midwestern Studies
Nikki M. Taylor
Margaret Garner was a runaway slave who, when confronted with capture, slit the throat of her toddler daughter rather than have her face a life in slavery. Driven toward Madness probes slavery’s legacy of violence and trauma to capture her circumstances and her transformation from a murdering mother to an icon of tragedy and resistance.
