The first and only anthology dedicated to Douglass's three journeys to Britain, covering oratory, print and visual culture This critical edition documents Frederick Douglass's relationship with Britain through unexplored oratory and print culture. With an unprecedented and comprehensive 60,000-word introduction that places the speeches, letters, poetry and images printed here into context, the sources provide extraordinary insight into the myriad performative techniques Douglass used to win support for the causes of emancipation and human rights. Editors examine how Douglass employed various media - letters, speeches, interviews and his autobiographies - to convince the transatlantic public not only that his works were worth reading and his voice worth hearing, but also that the fight against racism would continue after his death. Hannah-Rose Murray is Early Career Leverhulme Fellow at the University of Edinburgh. John R. Kaufman-McKivigan is the Mary O'Brien Gibson Professor of History at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis.
