Description

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.
