Twelve Years a Slave (Unabridged)Paperback - Unabridged, 4 April 1853

Unabridged value reproduction of Twelve Years a Slave by Solomon Northup, including the six original images*.* He was born free, kidnapped into slavery, and made his way back to freedom. This is his story. This is his voice.

Northup describes with stark detail his process into slavery through Washington D.C., "The voices of patriotic representatives boasting of freedom and equality, and the rattling of the poor slave's chains, almost commingled. A slave pen within the very shadow of the Capitol!"

This is his inspirational life that was made into a movie that won the 2014 Best Picture Academy Award, now offered in this unabridged, affordably printed volume.
