Logan Featherstone- Uncle Tom's Cabin

Logan Featherstone: I read the famous Harriet Beacher Stowe novel, Uncle Tom's Cabin, which follows the story of a couple of slaves from the same plantation that had to leave the plantation for one reason or another, and explores their feelings about slavery and there master, but mostly about there wills to live in a free world, or be a good Christian. I chose this book, because I wanted a deeper understanding of how slaves were treated back in the slave age of American History.

Steven Wright- I can understand why they wanted to live in a free world! There is such opportunity for the land owner and his prosperity in the new world, but little for the slaves as they are bound to the fields all their life. I hope to read this book as well to fully understand what the confinement of slavery really felt like.

It sounds like this book was a good source of information for you by teaching you about slavery.
