About this book

"Life and Times of Frederick Douglass" is the third and last autobiography of Frederick Douglass. In this finial memoir Douglas gives more details about his life as a slave and his escape from slavery than he did in his two previous autobiographies. Frederick Douglass (1818 – 1895) was an African-American social reformer, abolitionist, orator, writer, and statesman. After escaping from slavery in Maryland, he became a national leader of the abolitionist movement in Massachusetts and New York, gaining note for his dazzling oratory and incisive antislavery writings.Contents: Author's BirthRemoval From Grandmother'sTroubles of ChildhoodA General Survey of the Slave PlantationA Slaveholder's CharacterA Child's ReasoningLuxuries at the Great HouseCharacteristics of OverseersChange of LocationLearning to ReadGrowing in KnowledgeReligious Nature AwakenedThe Vicissitudes of Slave LifeExperience in St. MichaelsCovey, the Negro BreakerAnother Pressure of the Tyrant's ViseThe Last FloggingNew Relations and DutiesThe Runaway PlotEscape From SlaveryLife as a FreemanIntroduced to the AbolitionistsRecollections of Old FriendsOne Hundred ConventionsImpressions AbroadTriumphs and TrialsJohn Brown and Mrs. StoweIncreasing Demands of the Slave PowerThe Beginning of the EndSecession and WarHope for the NationVast ChangesLiving and LearningWeighed in the Balance"Time Makes All Things Even"Incidents and Events"Honor to Whom Honor"RetrospectionLater LifeA Grand OccasionDoubts as to Garfield's CourseRecorder of DeedsPresident Cleveland's AdministrationThe Supreme Court DecisionDefeat of James G.
