Born into a family of slaves, Frederick Douglass educated himself through sheer determination. His unconquered will to triumph over his circumstances makes his one of America’s best and most unlikely success stories.

This Prestwick House Literary Touchstone Edition includes a glossary and reader’s notes to help the modern reader contend with Douglass’ nineteenth-century style and vocabulary.

The book was kind of short, and it was very easy to read and understand. Also, it had explanations for diffecult words on each chapters in the back of the book. Overall, pretty well- written book!
