Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave - Paperback

by Frederick Douglass (Author)

First published in 1845, Frederick Douglass' narrative is the first of three autobiographies he wrote. It gives his account of his journey from slavery to freedom and is one of the most widely-read books of this genre. Though contemporaries such as William Wilson and Martin Delany challenged the authenticity or approach of Douglass' description, his story continues to resonate with modern readers as a testament to the indomitable spirit's triumph over injustice.
