Description
1852 Uncle Tom’s Cabin Beecher Stowe Anti Slavery Abolition Civil War RARE UK ed
“A moral battle cry for freedom!”
– Langston Hughes on Uncle Tom’s Cabin.
No other work of literature helped lay the groundwork for the American Civil War quite like Harriet Beecher Stowe’s ‘Uncle Tom’s Cabin.’ In turn, many historians have ‘credited’ this novel with being the contributing factor to the Civil War. This incredible story portrays slave families being torn apart through being sold and resold by slave masters. This story had a polarizing reaction. Over 300,000 of the first edition had to be printed, but remarkably was banned in most of the American South! Even still, it was the most-popular and highest-selling book in the 19th-century and is on the Grolier American 100!
According to ‘Printing and the Mind of Man’,
“the impact of ‘Uncle Tom’s Cabin’ on the United States was great than that of any book before or since”.
