plumpaperbacks's review against another edition

I know this is an important book, and slavery is an important issue. However, this book was not my cup of tea. Not only is it nonfiction, it’s also an autobiography, and I can count how many of those I’ve read on one hand. By default, I’m just not interested in books that I *have* to read, especially when I have to analyze along the way. The only thing this book had in its favor was that it was easy to read. I’m thankful for that, since all too often curriculum books are dense. Otherwise, I’ve got nothing.
