My Bondage and My Freedom

About this book

The second of Douglass' three autobiographies, 'My Bondage and My Freedom' details his transition from youth to adulthood, while under the bonds of slavery.

Even when he manages to escape, he discovers that his struggles to be treated and seen as an equal aren't over, even when he reaches the apparently-libertarian Northern states.

Unflinching in his recollections of brutality and psychological torment, Douglass paints a picture composed of sadness, anger, and compassion.

A stunning and important work. 'My Bondage and My Freedom' should be read by anyone and everyone.
