Publisher's Synopsis

An exploration of abolitionist autobiographies in the post-Civil War era. According to Julie Roy Jeffrey, such autobiographies were an attempt to challenge the nation's growing inclination to forget why the war was fought, what slavery was really like, and that African Americans were still being unfairly treated.
