Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Autobiography, Including Also Reminiscences of Slave Life, Recollections of the War, Education of Freedmen, Causes of the Exodus, Etc The writer would bring before the public the narrative of his life while in bondage, which is substantially true in all its details. The painful wrongs inflicted then and now have caused the writer, though many years have passed, to take up the publication of this narrative of himself. There are many incidents and characters described in this narrative personally known to the writer, which make him anxious to put forth some effort, however humble it may be, to ameliorate the condition of his now suffering people, in order that the facts may confirm the truthful saying: "My people will be styled a nation yet, and also claim their nationality." For this they have fought and suffered hundreds of years in servitude and bondage. It is a fact which ought to thrill the heart of American citizen to see the interest they take in learning, the untiring exertions they make to overcome every obstacle, even death itself, to acquire it. It is what God has promised: "To be to the faithful and to their seed after them." The writer hopes not to weary your patience in reviewing his narrative, which is fraught with so many exciting scenes. It is the duty of men to occupy places of power and trust, therefore rulers, above all others, ought to be holy and devoted men.
