Description
Frederick Douglass’s life used to be so unbelievable that it took him three autobiographies to inform the entire story. His life as a slave and his daring escape are just two chapters. He used to be also a famous abolitionist and women’s rights supporter. This biography uses Douglass’s own writings in describing the important thing events in his life. Number one source materials make clear key problems with the Civil War era and beyond. Historical photographs, sidebars, and fact boxes add much more relevant details about the era.
