Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl
Harriet Jacobs, under the name Linda Brent, illustrates here the evil and depravity of slavery. From Jacob's seven years of hiding in a garret three feet high, to her harrowing escape north, to reunion with her children and freedom, it remains an outstanding example of a woman's extraordinary courage in the face of almost unbeatable odds, as well as one of the most significant testimonials in American history.
