Description
Former slave, orator, journalist, autobiographer; revolutionary on behalf of a just America, Frederick Douglass was a towering figure, at once consummately charistmatic & flawed. His Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass galvanized the antislavery movement & is one of the truly seminal works of African-American literature. In this masterful & compelling biography, William S. McFeely captures the many sides of Douglass--his boyhood on the Chesapeake; his self-education; his rebellion & rising expectations; his marriage, affairs, & intense friendships; his bitter defeats & transcendent courage--& recreates the high drama of a turbulent era.
