Uncle Tom's Cabin: With 66 Illustrations and a Free Online Audio File. Plus a History of Slavery

Uncle Tom’s Cabin; or, Life Among the Lowly is a novel by American author Harriet Beecher Stowe. Slavery is it central theme. It is classed as one of the most “banned” books in the United States. It also became the second-best selling title of the 19th century; right behind the Bible.

Harriet Beecher Stowe was a Connecticut-born teacher at the Hartford Female Academy and an active abolitionist. The novel is believed to have had a profound effect on the North’s view of slavery. In fact, when President Lincoln met Stowe, he stated, “So you’re the little lady whose book started the Civil War.”

First published on March 20, 1852, the story focuses on the tale of Uncle Tom, a long-suffering black slave, the central character around whose life the other characters—both fellow slaves and slave owners—revolve. The novel depicts the harsh reality of slavery while also showing that Christian love and faith can overcome even something as evil as enslavement.

Plus there is a bonus section about the history of slavery down through the ages.
