Frederick Douglass

Blight, David W.

Genre:

David Blight has drawn on new information held in a private collection that few other historians have consulted as well as recently discovered issues of Douglass's newspapers. Blight tells the fascinating story of Douglass's two marriages and his complex extended family. Douglass was not only an astonishing man of words but a thinker steeped in Biblical story and theology.
