Summary

Published in 1852, Uncle Tom's Cabin was an immediate success, was influential in securing the abolition of slavery, and established Harriet Beecher Stowe as America's first major woman novelist. With a compelling narrative and memorable characters, the novel vividly explores the relationship between slave, trader, and owner, and exposes a system in which men, women, and even children were property to be bought and sold for profit or to settle debts. Still capable of arousing both compassion and anger, Uncle Tom's Cabin was described by Tolstoy as "one of the greatest productions of the human mind".

Heartbreaking but necessary

Heartbreaking but necessary. I read this book many many years ago and it has the same impact now as then.
What an awful thing slavery is. I'll never comprehend the idea of it.
Wonderfully narrated, Ricco Ross does the book justice.
