Frederick Douglass’s celebrated memoir is among the most influential works of the nineteenth-century abolitionist movement in the United States. Beginning with his birth on a Maryland plantation in 1818, Douglass’s account records the tyranny and brutality of his life in slavery until his ultimate escape to New Bedford, Massachusetts, at the age of twenty.
Published in 1845—just seven years after his escape—Douglass’s narrative sold five thousand copies in its first four months in print. His story’s impact—then and now—makes Douglass a key figure in the fight for African American freedom and equality in the United States.
Revised edition: Previously published as Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, this edition of Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass (AmazonClassics Edition) includes editorial revisions.

It is nice and short only 4 and a half hours. But probably best for preteens and teenagers given the language and what Douglass hints at regarding slave masters and slave women.
What better description of slavery than the 1st hand account of someone who grew up as a slave.
There is a statue of Mr. Douglass not far from where we live and sadly the person in this book is not like what is portrayed in metal. The difference is nuanced.
The performance by the narrator is very good and I wonder if the gentleman is a voice actor as well.
This should be read by homeschoolers

This book is an important read for anyone who is interested in actually being a person. I am inspired by Mr. Douglas’s will to carry on learning to read and write in the face of losing his actual life and livelihood. We say that stuff a lot today, about risk. Mr. Douglas risked it all AND he lost AND then he risked it all again for freedom.
I wonder if he knew the impact that his actions, words, and convictions would have on the world today. I feel privileged to have had the opportunity to read this book. It was completely heart wrenching and awe inspiring. 10/10 must read.
