About this book

In this expanded second autobiography, Frederick Douglass tells the full story of his life in bondage and his escape to freedom, going far beyond his famous first Narrative to reflect deeply on the psychology of slavery, the corrupting power it held over masters and slaves alike, and his growth into a leading abolitionist and orator. Written with force, dignity, and searching intelligence, it is both a gripping personal story and a profound analysis of American slavery and freedom. Richer and more reflective than his earlier work, My Bondage and My Freedom is one of the greatest of all slave narratives and a landmark of African American literature and thought.

About the author

Frederick Douglass

Frederick Douglass (1818–1895) combined abolitionism and advocacy for women's voting rights with work as an orator, newspaper publisher and author. Born Frederick Augustus Washington Bailey in Maryland, he learned to read while enslaved and escaped to New York in 1838 with help from Anna Murray, whom he soon married.
