Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl Written by Herself

Jacobs (1813-97) was a slave in North Carolina and suffered terribly, along with her family, at the hands of a ruthless owner. She made several failed attempts to escape before successfully making her way North, though it took years of hiding and slow progress. Eventually, she was reunited with her children. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
