Acerca de este libro electrónico

A classic story of agonizing circumstances and enduring hope, The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass is an eloquent account of a young man's life under slavery and his eventual escape.

Written to promote the abolitionist cause, it became the best-selling fugitive slave narrative of the era. This autobiography is a powerful reminder of the brutality of slavery and the terrors that African-American people were forced to endure.

Acerca del autor

Frederick Douglass (1818-1895) grew up as a slave on a plantation in Maryland before his escape along the Underground Railroad to NewYork City. From that time on, he committed his life to supporting the abolitionist cause. By 1845 he had attained a degree of notoriety as an abolitionist and he published his famous autobiography, The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave. After the Civil War, he continued to campaign for racial equality and towards the end of his life he became the first African American to ever receive a nomination for the presidency.
