Near Fine. 5x1x8. 2003 reissue of 1892 edition, constituting the final revised text of the work first published in 1845, and expanded in 1855 and 1881. Edgewear at spine head and spine base. xxi, 470 pp. Born around 1817 in Maryland, Frederick Douglass was a former plantation slave who went on to become a brilliant writer and eloquent orator. In this amazing first-hand narrative, published in 1881, he vividly recounts his early years, which were filled with physical abuse, deprivation, and tragedy; his dramatic escapes to the North, recapture, and eventual freedom; his work for the Anti-Slavery Society and influential role in speaking for other African-Americans; his abolitionist campaigns, and crusade for full civil rights for former slaves. 2003.
