Narrative of the Life of Henry Box Brown, Written by Himself
Henry Box Brown
Henry Brown had himself sealed in a three-foot-by-two-foot box and shipped from Richmond, Virginia, to Philadelphia, a twenty-seven-hour journey to freedom. This work tells the story of his famed escape, but also recounts his later life as a black man making his way through white American and British culture.
