Slave Narrative Six Pack - Uncle Tom’s Cabin, Twelve Years A Slave, Journal of a Residence on a Georgian Plantation, The Life of Olaudah Equiano, William ... (Slave Narrative Six Pack Boxset Book 1) Kindle Edition

by Harriet Beecher Stowe (Author), Solomon Northup (Author), Frances Anne Kemble (Author), Format: Kindle Edition
4.3 out of 5 stars 93 ratings
The slave narrative is a literary sub-genre that emerged from the written accounts of enslaved Africans in Great Britain and its colonies, including the later United States, Canada, and Caribbean nations. Some of the earliest memoirs of captivity known in England and the British Isles were written by white Europeans and later Americans captured and sometimes enslaved in North Africa, usually by Barbary pirates. These were part of a broad category of "captivity narratives" by English-speaking Europeans.

For the Europeans and Americans, the division between captivity as slaves and as prisoners of war was not always clear. A broader name for these works is "captivity literature."

Slave Narrative Six Pack presents six of the most famous examples of the genre:

Uncle Tom's Cabin by Harriet Beecher Stowe
Twelve Years a Slave by Solomon Northup
Journal of a Residence on a Georgian Plantation in 1838-1839 by Frances Anne Kemble
The Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equiano, Or Gustavus Vassa, The African by Olaudah Equiano
The Life of William H. Furness by William Still
Captain Canot; or, Twenty years of an African slaver: being an account of his career and adventures on the coast, in the interior, on shipboard, and in the West Indies by Brantz Mayer

Includes image gallery and link to free audio recording of Uncle Tom’s Cabin.

    Good selection of those "much quoted, seldom read" books you really OUGHT to read. I hadn't actually read Uncle Tom's cabin before, let alone the others and it wasn't what I expected. Make time for these, they really are worth it, and topical to boot.

    For the price, this is ultimate value. I've just finished the first, Uncle Tom's Cabin, which is a five-star story in itself.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 August 2015
    I’ve been buying these wonderful ‘Six Packs’, and just added the Slave Narrative Six Pack to my library. For this price you can’t beat these classics. Uncle Tom's Cabin by Harriet Beecher Stowe was my favorite. Educational and powerful, these stories will open your eyes about slaves, prisoners, history, and war. Plus interesting illustrations in the back. If you’re a history lover of classics, you can’t miss this excellent Six Pack.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great collection
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 5 August 2015
    I read the Slave Narrative collection with pleasure: the six stories talks about the reality of slavery which sometimes we forgot to remember.
    It turns out there's more of a simple 'African-American slavery' topic to be treated in them: modern slavery is not much different from the old one and these intense stories can teach you something about everyday silent slavery as well.
    The stories are also well written and flow smoothly - a plus point to be added at the lovely crafted illustrations attached.

    This collection is an important series of books. Not only historical but educational. I suggest that people have their kids read this collection. Absolutely fantastic - totally worth the meagre 99 cents to purchase. Excellent.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great read!
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 6 August 2015
    I remember reading "Uncle Tom's Cabin" by Harriet Beecher Stowe, and the impact it had on most of my class. "The Slave Narrative Six Pack," is a wonderful history and educational read for children, with illustrations depicting the hardships and emotions that enslaved people have endured in the past...to present times. The British brought the people from Africa, and soon their colonies in America and the Caribbean bought, owned, and forced labor and hardships upon these captured people. I thoroughly read each little narrative that were the voices of the enslaved. I would recommend this series to everyone...less we forget what happened.

    Reviewed in the United States on 30 March 2018
    Verified Purchase
    Compelling stories written by people from all walks of life. You get the perspectives from an enslaved free man, from slave holders ("good" and bad), etc. The worst was the narrative from a slaver. Like today, everything is all about the money. Sad, moving first-person accounts.

    If you have no background in 19th Century Slavery, these six packs are the way to go. If you do have a background, the repeats of everything you've read before can be frustrating. So check titles prior to purchase!
