Twelve Years a Slave

Solomon Northup,

About this book

Born free. Sold into slavery. Twelve years in chains. Twelve Years a Slave (1853), by Solomon Northup, is one of the most powerful slave narratives ever written—a true story of resilience, injustice, and the enduring will to be free. Northup, a free Black man living in New York, was kidnapped in Washington, D.C., and sold into slavery in the Deep South. For twelve years he endured brutal treatment on Louisiana plantations before finally regaining his freedom. Told with unflinching honesty and vivid detail, his memoir exposes the cruelty of slavery while honoring the strength, dignity, and humanity of those who endured it. More than just a historical document, it is a testament to the triumph of the human spirit against overwhelming odds. Praised in its time and rediscovered in the modern era, Twelve Years a Slave remains essential reading for understanding America's past and the ongoing struggle for justice and equality. ?
