Förlagets beskrivning
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview: #1 I was born in Tuckahoe, near Hillsborough, Maryland. My mother, Harriet Bailey, was a slave. My father was a white man. I was separated from my mother when I was an infant, and was placed under the care of an old woman.#2 My mother died when I was seven years old. I was not allowed to be present during her illness or burial. She was gone long before I knew anything about it. I was never allowed to see my father, who was a slaveholder.#3 Slavery at the south is not as it was in the past. The increase of black people has changed the nature of slavery there. Many are being brought into the world who owe their existence to white fathers, and those fathers most frequently their own masters.#4 I was so terrified and horror-stricken at the sight that I hid myself in a closet. I had never seen anything like it before. I had always lived with my grandmother on the outskirts of the plantation, where I had been out of the way of the bloody scenes that often occurred on the plantation
