A proposito di questo titolo

 Published in 1845, the Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, An American Slave, Written by Himself was crafted in response to skeptics who doubted the authenticity of Douglasss experiences as a leading abolitionist. He begins with haunting memories of his early life, including his entry into the ‘hell of slavery’ marked by the brutal beating of his Aunt Hester. Douglass recounts his relentless journey to literacy, a pivotal fistfight with Edward Covey, his imprisonment after a failed escape, and his eventual flight northward—first to New York, where he marries Anna Murray, and then to New Bedford, Massachusetts. A runaway bestseller that captivated thousands shortly after its release, Douglass’s autobiography stands as a powerful fugitive slave narrative that set the stage for his remarkable career as an influential advocate for civil rights.
