UNCLE TOMS CABIN - HARRIET BEECHER-STOWE KARTON...

The first American novel to become an international best-seller  Stowe's book charts the paths

a martyr who transcends all earthly ties. This edition firmly locates Uncle Tom's Cabin within
the context of African-American writing  the issues of race and the role of women. Its
introduction discusses African responses to Stowe's novel over the last century and a half and
its appendices include excerpts from popular slave narratives  Stowe's `The Key to Uncle Tom's
Cabin'  and Frederick Douglass's response to Stowe's model of black martyrdom.
