This book. Wow. It was emotional, powerful and intense. I am so glad that I read it. As someone who always looked back at history tired of hearing the stories of the slave owners im so grateful to have discovered this book that details just a small amount of mistreatment and abuse of a slave. Mr Douglas is one of tbe strongest people I know. He not only stood up for himself but he continually put his fellow-slaves along side him, always making sure they remained safe while he spoke his truth.

Not revealing his way of escape to protect them.

It was such an easy read, i thoughly enjoyed the experience. I am sickened that any person could have inflicted such horrors on a fellow person. It is important for us to educate ourselves on the past so that we can work to improve the present to make the future a better place.
