HarperCollins is proud to present its incredible range of best-loved, essential classics.
In his first autobiographical work, published in 1845, The Narrative of Frederick Douglass describes how he went from slave to a free man..
As an orator and preacher, Douglass was an abolitionist, supporter of women\'s suffrage and staunch defender of equality for all.
From the moment he arrived in New York City, he felt a need to tell his story, one that mirrored so many people still enslaved in the South with no hope of escape.
Born into slavery during the early nineteenth century, Frederick Douglass escaped to freedom before he was twenty-one years old.
You have seen how a man was made a slave; you shall see how a slave was made a man.
