Omschrijving
A Narrative of the Life of Noah Davis: A Colored Man (1859) is an autobiographical account of the life of Noah Davis, an African American man who lived during the mid-19th century. The book is written in first-person and chronicles Davis' experiences growing up as a slave in Virginia, his escape to freedom, and his subsequent life as a free man in the North.Davis' story begins with his childhood on a plantation in Virginia, where he was born into slavery. He describes the harsh conditions he and his fellow slaves endured, including long hours of labor and beatings from their white masters. Davis also recounts the various strategies he and other slaves used to resist their oppression, such as stealing food and clothing and organizing secret meetings.After several failed attempts to escape, Davis finally succeeded in fleeing to the North, where he settled in New York City. There, he found work as a laborer and became involved in the abolitionist movement. He also met and married his wife, who was also a former slave.Throughout the book, Davis reflects on the injustices of slavery and racism, and argues passionately for the abolition of slavery and the equal treatment of all people regardless of race. His story is a powerful testament to the resilience and courage of African Americans during a dark period in American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
