Nancy Prince is an African American woman who writes about her
personal and professional life, including her marriage and travels
abroad to Russia and Jamaica. It's a vivid account of the events
that would shape her business and legacy. Little is known about
Nancy Prince's early years. She was born in Massachusetts to a
seaman and mother who remarried multiple times. Despite an unstable
homelife, Nancy helped to support the family any way she could. She
worked as a servant before marrying Nero Prince, a foot soldier and
cofounder of the Prince Hall Freemasons. They eventually moved
overseas where Nero held multiple positions in the Russian Courts.
Nancy became a successful businesswoman, establishing a boarding
school, giving lecturers and working as a seamstress. A Narrative
of the Life and Travels of Mrs. Nancy Prince explores the author's
unconventional path to success. She surpassed expectations to
become a respected figure among her peers. As an entrepreneur, she
provided a vital service and opportunities to those who needed them
most. With an eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset
manuscript, this edition of A Narrative of the Life and Travels of
Mrs. Nancy Prince is both modern and readable.
