Publisher's Summary

Harriet Ann Jacob's autobiography documents her life as a slave and how she attained freedom for herself and her children. Harrowing in its descriptions of sexual abuse, Jacob's slave narrative is notable for the appeal it made to abolitionist women to open their eyes to the realities of slavery. Deemed too shocking for reading audiences at the time, the book was shelved before it was published in 1861 near the start of the Civil War.

Incidents in the life of a slave girl

Whereas I have always had deep regard for the Blacks, Linda’s account of her experiences give further enlightenment on the true experiences of the slaves.
