Requests:  0 Summary:  One of the greatest works of American autobiography, in a definitive Library of America text: 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 antislavery movement and drew thousands, black and white, to the cause. Written in part as a response to skeptics who refused to believe that so articulate an orator could ever have been a slave, the "Narrative" reveals the eloquence and fierce intelligence that made Douglass a brilliantly effective spokesman for abolition and equal rights, as he shapes an inspiring vision of self-realization in the face of unimaginable odds.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 973.8092 Douglass Do Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library YA -- Nonfiction 973.8092 Douglass Do Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waimanalo P/S Library YA -- Biography B Douglass Do Checked In Add Copy to MyList
