Isaac T. Hopper: A True Life is a biographical book written by L. Maria Child. The book tells the story of Isaac Tatem Hopper, an American abolitionist and social reformer who worked tirelessly to end slavery and improve the lives of marginalized people in the 19th century. The book chronicles Hopper's life, from his humble beginnings as a Quaker farmer to his rise as a prominent figure in the abolitionist movement. It details his work as an Underground Railroad conductor, his efforts to aid fugitive slaves, and his advocacy for women's rights and prison reform.
