The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia<span> is a country situated in </span>Southwest Asia<span>, the largest country of </span>Arabia<span>, bordering the </span>Persian Gulf<span> and the </span>Red Sea<span>, north of </span>Yemen<span>. Its extensive coastlines on the Persian Gulf and Red Sea provide great leverage on </span>shipping<span> (especially </span>crude oil<span>) through the Persian Gulf and </span>Suez Canal<span>. The kingdom occupies 80% of the </span>Arabian Peninsula<span>. Most of the country's boundaries with the </span>United Arab Emirates<span> (UAE), </span>Oman<span>, and the </span>Republic of Yemen<span> (formerly two separate countries: the </span>Yemen Arab Republic<span> or </span>North Yemen<span>; and the </span>People's Democratic Republic of Yemen<span> or South Yemen) are undefined, so the exact size of the country remains unknown. The Saudi government estimate is at 2,217,949 square kilometres, while other reputable estimates vary between 2,149,690 and 2,24</span><span>0,000 sq. kilometres. Less than 1% of the total area is suitable for cultivation, and in the early 1990s, population distribution varied greatly among the towns of the eastern and western coastal areas, the densely populated interior oases, and the vast, almost empty deserts.

Harriet Tubman: Conductor on the Underground Railroad is an interesting and well-written book that tells the story of an extraordinarily courageous and committed woman. Tubman continues to inspire those seeking dignity for all people in America. Petry's dramatization of Tubman's perseverance and sense of purpose in leading slaves to freedom shows how a motivated individual can bring about change.
Petry intends for Harriet Tubman to fill a void in an important part of United States history and asserts that "the majority of textbooks used in high schools do not give an adequate or accurate picture of the history of slavery in the United States." A completely adequate and accurate account of slavery would no doubt require many volumes, yet this biographical novel represents significant movement toward that ideal. It juxtaposes well-known historical information with details about Tubman's "underground" activities. This technique adds depth and relevance to the story of Tubman's achievements.
First person thats how the story is told by one of the characters
