Uncle Tom's Cabin

"So you're the little woman who wrote the book that made this great war." -Abraham Lincoln to Harriet Beecher StoweUncle Tom's Cabin is an anti-slavery novel published in 1852, which had a profound effect on attitudes toward African Americans and slavery in the U. S. and is said to have "helped lay the groundwork for the Civil War". When a compassionate landowner decides to sell two slaves-Uncle Tom and Eliza-in order to raise funds, the lives of the two slaves follow divergent paths. While Eliza escapes to eventual freedom, Uncle Tom is repeatedly sold until he ends up working on the prosperous Legree plantation, where his very life becomes forfeit to his violent master. This book is credited with helping fuel the abolitionist cause in the 1850s. A True Classic and Required Reading for all Lovers of American History!
