Produktbeschreibung

The Frederick Douglass Family Story Previously unseen speeches, letters, autobiographies, essays, and photographs of Frederick Douglass and his sons Lewis Henry, Frederick Jr. and Charles Remond are collected here. The family's history is told alongside full colour facsimile reproductions of over 80 previously unpublished manuscripts and artefacts held in the Walter O. Evans Collection. All of life can be found within these pages: romance, hope, despair, love, life, death, war, protest, politics, art and friendship. Working together and against a changing backdrop of US slavery, Civil War and Reconstruction, the Douglass family fought for a new 'dawn of freedom'. The book also includes a Foreword by Robert S. Levine and an Afterword by Kim F. Hall. Celeste-Marie Bernier is Professor of Black Studies and Personal Chair in English Literature at the University of Edinburgh. Andrew Taylor is Senior Lecturer in English Literature at the University of Edinburgh.
