Omschrijving

Up From Slavery is a memoir written by Booker T. Washington, an African American educator and leader who rose from slavery to become one of the most influential figures of his time. The book chronicles Washington's life from his childhood as a slave in Virginia to his education at the Hampton Institute and his founding of the Tuskegee Institute in Alabama. Along the way, he recounts his struggles and triumphs as a black man in a deeply divided and discriminatory society, and his efforts to build bridges between African Americans and white Americans. Washington's message of self-reliance, hard work, and cooperation resonated with many people, and his book became a bestseller and a classic of American literature. Today, Up From Slavery is still widely read and admired for its inspiring story of perseverance and achievement in the face of adversity.No one connected with the boarding department seemed to have any idea that meals must be served at certain fixed and regular hours, and this was a source of great worry. Everything was so out of joint and so inconvenient that I feel safe in saying that for the first two weeks something was wrong at every meal. Either the meat was not done or had been burnt, or the salt had been left out of the bread, or the tea had been forgotten.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
