Publisher's Synopsis

Uncle Tom's Cabin is a novel written by Harriet Beecher Stowe, first published in 1852. The book is a fictional account of the lives of slaves in the United States during the 19th century. The novel follows the life of Uncle Tom, a slave who is sold to different owners and experiences the brutality of slavery. The story also follows the lives of other slaves, including Eliza, who escapes with her child, and George, who fights for his freedom. The book highlights the inhumane treatment of slaves and the impact of slavery on families. Uncle Tom's Cabin was a controversial book when it was first published, as it challenged the institution of slavery and helped to fuel the abolitionist movement. The book has since become a classic in American literature and is widely recognized as an important work in the fight against slavery.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
