In this engrossing, first-hand narrative originally published in 1845, he vividly recounts early years of physical abuse, deprivation and tragedy; his dramatic escape to the North and eventual freedom, abolitionist campaigns, and crusade for full civil rights for former slaves. A powerful autobiography of a passionate civil rights advocate, this book will be of value to anyone interested in African-American history 600 10 $a Douglass, Frederick, $d 1818-1895. 650 0 $a African American abolitionists $v Biography. 650 0 $a Abolitionists $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Antislavery movements $z United States $x History $y 19th century. 650 0 $a Fugitive slaves $z Maryland $v Biography. 650 0 $a Slaves $z Maryland $x Social conditions $y 19th century. 650 0 $a Plantation life $z Maryland $x History $y 19th century. 650 0 $a Slaves $x Social conditions. 941 $a 1 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722064356.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=75F8D58EEAB411EB95DB475F3FECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
