About this listen

Born in Connecticut in 1811, Harriet Beecher Stowe was an abolitionist, author, and playwright. Slavery was a major industry in the American South, and Stowe worked with the Underground Railroad to help escaped slaves head north towards freedom. The publication of her book, Uncle Tom’s Cabin, a scathing anti-slavery novel, fanned the flames that started the Civil War. The book’s emotional portrayal of the impact of slavery captured the nation’s attention. A best seller in its time, Uncle Tom’s Cabin sealed Harriet Beecher Stowe’s reputations as one of the most influential anti-slavery voices in US history.

For such a time as this

I just heard Uncle Tom's cabin last year. A powerful book. So needed to know about the brilliant author. She reminded me of Queen Esther in the Bible who spoke up for those who did not have a voice. She wrote before computers which adds to her amazing ability.
