Audible review

The book content was revealing and enlightening. The narrator did an excellent job of exemplifying the tone of Frederick Douglass.

Brilliant

NO words - should be required reading for all white people. So powerful. But I think the readers voice some how minimizes the horror- which may be a good thing, - no sure. Brilliant work.

This should be prescribed reading

My eyes are now a little more open but I am aware that it is but a glimpse at the horrors of slavery.
