Book Description
Excerpt from The Narrative of Lunsford Lane, Formerly of Raleigh, N. C: Embracing an Account of His Early Life, the Redemption by Purchase of Himself and Family From Slavery, and His Banishment From the Place of His Birth for the Crime of Wearing a Colored Skin It has not been any part of my object to describe slave ry generally, and in the narration of my own case I have dwelt as little as possible upon the dark side - have spoken mostly of the bright. In whatever I have been obliged to say unfavorable to others, I have endeavored not-to over state, but have chosen rather to come short of giving the full picture - omitting much which it did not seem import ant to my object to relate. And yet I would not venture to say that this publication does not contain a single period which might be twisted to convey an idea more than should be expressed.

Book Description
The autobiographies of former slaves contributed powerfully to the abolitionist movement in the United States, fanning national--even international--indignation against the evils of slavery. The four texts gathered here are all from North Carolina slaves and are among the most memorable and influential slave narratives published in the nineteenth century. The writings of Moses Roper (1838), Lunsford Lane (1842), Moses Grandy (1843), and the Reverend Thomas H. Jones (1854) provide a moving testament to the struggles of enslaved people to affirm their human dignity and ultimately seize their liberty. Introductions to each narrative provide biographical and historical information as well as explanatory notes. Andrews's general introduction to the collection reveals that these narratives not only helped energize the abolitionist movement but also laid the groundwork for an African American literary tradition that inspired such novelists as Toni Morrison and Charles Johnson.
