The Fugitive Blacksmith: Or Events In The History Of James W C. Pennington is a book written by James W. C. Pennington in 1849. The book is an autobiographical account of Pennington's life as a blacksmith and his escape from slavery. Pennington was born into slavery in Maryland in 1807 and was later sold to a plantation in Virginia. He managed to escape from slavery in 1828 and made his way to New York City. There, he became a blacksmith and eventually became a minister. The book details Pennington's experiences as a slave, his escape, and his life in New York City. It also includes his views on slavery and his efforts to help other slaves escape. The Fugitive Blacksmith is an important historical document that sheds light on the experiences of slaves in America and the struggle for freedom.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
