Excerpt: ...and downcast when He cannot make Himself heard in their hearts. For you, the word, " I will come to you," was good, because God had already made room for it by His own voice, but it might have been a mere word, an empty sound to Jean just now. It will not always be so. God will draw nearer to him on the galley bench than ever He has been able to do before. The voice will speak within, ' and be received with joy there, though it could never make itself heard before, because the din and bustle of the world had drowned the " still small voice " in the soul.' G 'Mother, how is it you know so much?' exclaimed Marie wonderingly, after she had taken in something of the comfort of her foster-mother's words. 'I know very little, ma mignonne; how should I, for I have lived here all my life? But just because I have been quiet, perhaps, God has been able to speak to me through His written word and the "still small voice " that has come to me again and again.' 'Ah, that must be it!' said Marie, with a sigh. 'In the city we are all so busy--all trying to do so much. That was why I wanted to come here, and when I go home I should like to take Jacqueline with me. Will you spare her to me for a little while?' 'For a little while, yes, ma mignonne, if your father is willing, ' answered Madame Court. Marie rose from her sitting posture and went in search of her father at once. Her eyes still bore traces of recent tears, but she had regained her serenity of soul, and met her father's look of anxiety with a reassuring smile. 'Oh yes, I am better, ' she said, answering his mute question; 'and when I come home next week I want to bring Jacqueline with me.' 'Yes, yes, bring her, ' said Monsieur Morel, eager to gratify any wish that his...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If I ever wavered under the consideration, that the Almighty, in some way, ordained slavery, and willed my enslavement for his own glory, I wavered no longer. I had now penetrated the secret of all slavery and oppression, and had ascertained their true foundation to be in the pride, the power and the avarice of man. -from Chapter XI: "A Change Came O'er the Spirit of My Dream" He is one of the greatest Americans in the history of the nation: editor, orator, author, statesman, and reformer FREDERICK DOUGLASS (1818-1895) arrived on the national scene in 1841 to such universal acclaim that it seemed impossible for his admirers to conceive that he had been born and raised within chains. The first of his three autobiographies, 1845's Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass (also available from Cosimo), was written mainly to explain how he accomplished this astonishing feat. This, the second of his life stories, was published in 1855, and offers a more in-depth and-though seemingly impossible-even more thoughtful exploration of his life as a slave and his journey to escape it than his first book had. Douglass also discusses the challenges of life not only as a free man but as a famous one much in demand, as a public speaker in the Northern States and in Great Britain as well. This edition also includes the original publication's appendix, which features letters and speeches by the great man. A foundational work of African-American literature and a vital document of 19th-century American history, this is the extraordinary tale of a personal battle for freedom that became a fight for the very soul of a nation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Running a Thousand Miles for Freedom" chronicles the daring escape of William and Ellen Craft which is often known as the most ingenious plot in fugitive slave history. While Ellen posed as a white male planter William, her husband, posed as her personal servant. The couple cleverly travelled by train and steamboat, escaped nail-biting detection and arrived in Philadelphia on Christmas Day. Excerpt: "It is a common practice in the slave States for ladies, when angry with their maids, to send them to the calybuce sugar-house, or to some other place established for the purpose of punishing slaves, and have them severely flogged; and I am sorry it is a fact, that the villains to whom those defenceless creatures are sent, not only flog them as they are ordered, but frequently compel them to submit to the greatest indignity." William Craft (1824–1900) and Ellen Craft (1826–1891) were slaves from Macon, Georgia in the United States who escaped to the North in December 1848. Their daring escape was widely publicized, making them among the most famous of fugitive slaves in America. But due to the controversial Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 they had to immigrate to Britain for safety where they continued to garner support for the abolishment of slavery.

Book excerpt: My Bondage and My Freedom by Frederick Douglass My Bondage and My Freedom, published in 1855, is an example of a genre of literature known as the slave narrative. This genus flourished around 1760 and during the first decades after the abolition of slavery. One of the most famous examples is the Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equiano, but the most famous writer of a slave narrative is almost certainly Frederick Douglas. Iconoclast Douglass had so much to share about the reality of slavery that My Bondage and My Freedom is actually his second publication. The first, and most famous, is his groundbreaking Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave: Written by Himself. Technically, My Bondage and My Freedom is considered a revised and expanded version of that original post, as it serves to update readers on what has transpired in the decade since the previous narrative was published. These additions focus primarily on his encounter with racism in the northern states, his activism in the name of abolition, and most significantly, his decision to break with William Lloyd Garrison and white abolitionist leaders to establish the primacy of the voice. black in the country. call to end slavery. Central to this slave narrative is Douglass's fervent expression of his claim that the institutions of slavery corrupt and dehumanize not just the slave, but the owner and non-slave owner who approves of the practice.
