About the book

Published seven years after his escape from slavery, Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, An American Slave (1845) is a powerful account of the cruelty and oppression of the Maryland plantation culture into which Frederick Douglass was born. It brought him to the forefront of the anti-slavery movement and drew thousands, black and white, to the cause. The book made Douglass a brilliantly effective spokesman for abolition and equal rights, as he shapes an inspiring vision of self-realisation in the face of unimaginable odds.
