4 out of 5 stars This moving story creates an empathy for negro slaves.   September 1, 1999

This book was moving and a good summer reading book for students like myself in high school.


5 out of 5 stars 1sthand account of the evils of this "peculiar institution"   August 31, 1999
 10 out of 11 found this review helpful

This is a great book, and I feel everyone should read it. Iwasn't forced to read, but I chose to read it on my own in order to better understand the nation's injustices. Douglass' first hand account of slavery is one of the best sources. His writing isn't wordy or difficult to understand, either.

Great man, great book.

I Read Douglass for an assignment in my college U.S. History class, and was almost dreading opening this book afraid that Douglass would blame every white person for his torment. Instead I found that Douglass knew the difference between the slave owners and the people who were trying to stop the practice. I finished this book in a matter of days, and respect Douglass as the extreamly brave man that he was. The paper I wrote reflected my outrage that such an occurance could have happened in this beautiful country.
