Beskrivelse af Slavery In The United States
Slavery In The United States: A Narrative Of The Life And Adventures Of Charles Ball, A Black Man is a memoir written by Charles Ball, an enslaved African American who was born in Maryland in the late 18th century. The book provides a detailed and harrowing account of Ball's life as a slave, including his experiences working on plantations in Maryland and Virginia, his attempts to escape slavery, and his eventual freedom.Throughout the book, Ball describes the brutal treatment that he and other slaves endured at the hands of their owners, including physical abuse, forced labor, and the separation of families. He also details the ways in which slaves resisted their enslavement, such as through acts of rebellion and sabotage.In addition to his own experiences, Ball also provides historical context for the institution of slavery in the United States, including the origins of the transatlantic slave trade and the economic and political forces that sustained slavery in the South.Overall, Slavery In The United States offers a powerful and insightful perspective on the horrors of slavery in the United States, as well as the resilience and resistance of enslaved people.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
