Answer:
Afrika's ransom in the book is amounted to $200.
Explanation:
"True North" is a novel written by Kathryn Lasky. The novel is about two girls, Lucy and Afrika, from two distinctive worlds, embarking on a journey together.
Afrika is a nineteen year old slave runaway girl. In Chapter 19, when Afrika was hiding with the Hunns, her former owner, Jenk Thomas had a bill published, claiming a reward of two-hundred dollars to the one who will hand Afrika over to him.
So, the ransom amounted to $200 on Afrika in the book.
The giver no longer has that memory once the giver gives it away.
