Beschreibung

For half a century from its publication in 1901 Up from Slavery was the best known book written by an African American. The life of ex-slave Booker T. Washington embodied the legendary rise of the American self-made man, and his autobiography gave prominence for the first time to the voice of a group which had to pull itself up from extreme adversity. This edition includes detailed notes and a fascinating introduction which which puts Washington'sachievement in its historical context.
