fascinating.: I ordered this book for my daughter's summer reading program and started reading it myself. It's an amazing story of an amazing man. I recommend it highly!
cheap but missing parts: the book was cheap but missing the appendix,this is an essential part of the book, without it your missing a third of the history. I'm surprised it was published without this essential part.
Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass: The book was kind of short, and it was very easy to read and understand. Also, it had explanations for diffecult words on each chapters in the back of the book. Overall, pretty well- written book!
Fast Shipping: My order arrived before the estimated delivery date and was in great condition, as the seller said it would be. :)
A book that all American and Non-American should read: The biography of a man born to slavery, that self-taught how to read and write, learned a trade, survived maltreatment, slavery, poverty, degradation, escaped from the southern states and fought for the freedom of Black Americans. The life of someone to look up, someone who came from the bottom and reached a high level in society. This is a book that speaks about struggling, that shows how to develop self-respect, and strong will to improve one self and change the society that abused, underserved, discrimanated and criminalized other humans beings. It is sad to find out that his efforts were left out in time due that discrimination, segregation, mistreatment and neglect still exist toward minority groups in the United States. The iron chains were broken but we still have invisible chains that keep us from learning, improving and receiving equal treatment and opportunities.
