"Is it not astonishing, that while we are ploughing, planting, and reaping, using all kinds of mechanical tools, erecting houses and constructing bridges, building ships, working in metals of brass, iron, and copper, silver and gold; that while we are reading, writing, and ciphering, acting as clerks, merchants, and secretaries, having among us lawyers, doctors, ministers, poets, authors, editors, orators, and teachers; that while we are engaged in all manner of enterprises common to other men, digging gold in California, capturing the whale in the Pacific, breeding sheep and cattle on the hillside; living, moving, acting, thinking, planning; living in families as husbands, wives, and children; and, above all, confessing and worshipping the Christian's God, and looking hopefully for immortal life beyond the grave;—is it not astonishing, I say, that we are called upon to prove that we are men?" -Frederick Douglass

"We first crush people to the earth, and then claim the right of trampling on them forever, because they are prostrate." -Lydia Maria Francis Child

The Freedmen Book Lydia Maria Francis Child L Maria Child 9781540491350 Books

The author has grouped together some very compelling and emotional stories of black people who have behaved very bravely, and morally under exceedingly difficult circumstances. She chose very interesting stories, and frames them well with some of her own observations about self help and how to achieve a feeling of self worth. The stories are accurate, compelling, and inspiring. Although I was vaguely familiar with many of the stories, I never felt it was a rehash of old material. I felt I had gained a good deal of knowledge and inspiration from reading the book.

Terrific published book. And the book itself was well-worth moving the content to . Everyone should read The Freedman's Book who has an interest in American history.
Love reading about this apart of History.Thanks
Great Book!
excellent
This review is for the First Rate Publishers edition and only for the printing, not the content. Do not order this print, the letters are tiny, and the submissions are not separated by chapter or page, the pages are not even numbered (also no Table of Contents). You are better off downloading an e-book and reading off the screen of your pc or latptop. Ordering the First Rate Publishers edition has been a waste of my time and money.
