Description

"Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave" is the 1845 autobiography of freed slave and abolitionist Frederick Douglass.

It recounts his life as a slave in Maryland and his flight for freedom.

The account is accompanied by texts written by well-known fellow abolitionists of the time: William Lloyd Garrison and Wendell Philipps, acting as proof of the legitimacy of the author's claims.

Upon its publication, the texts was well received, although it did get some negative feedback both from people acquainted with Douglass's old masters, and with people doubting their cruelty, or that a black man could have written such a text.

Nevertheless, "Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave" had a huge impact on society, and remains one of the most read and studied personal accounts of slavery in America in the 19th century to this day. -
