Seacole’s story is amazing! This book does a decent job of capturing her spirit. I enjoyed it, but felt it lacked some details.

Incredible woman, and this book introduced me to her. A bit dry at times, but ultimately worth reading to learn about Mary Seacole.

I had mixed feelings. The subject matter is fascinating, but the writing wasn’t always engaging. An important story, regardless.
