Helpful Score: 2
Frederick Douglass tells of his life in plain language that illustrates the brutal nature of slavery. I found his narrative easy and enjoyable reading, though upsetting at times. The book is graphic at times about the violence Douglass and others experienced.

A must read for every American. I sense his bitterness and anger at the institution of slavery and the duplicitousness of 'men' who participated vigorously in perpetuating it. I am awakened to the value of my freedom and how fragile it is.
