Of the many captivity stories or 'slave narratives' that emerged in the first half of the nineteenth century, the Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass is widely considered to be the most important. The author, known for his eloquence, brings the same mastery of the English language to his memoir. His book describes the events of his life and is considered to be one of the most influential pieces of literature to fuel the abolitionist movement of the early 19th century in the United States.

Frederick Niecks' meticulous biography of Chopin is praised to this day as one of the finest accounts of the legendary composer's life ever written. In Niecks' painstakingly assembled work, we behold a chronologically arranged narrative of the upbringing, rise to fame, prominence, illness and death of Frederick Chopin. His tumultuous, strained relationship with French author George Sand is recounted, with the regular quotation of correspondences between the couple and others included in abundance. Frederick Chopin as a Man and Musician is a meticulous and voluminous work, perfect for fans and students of the composer who wish to gain intimate insights into Chopin's personal nature, habits, friends, family and the world in which he lived. His travels and struggle with a disease generally suspected to be tuberculosis, are much discussed. Tragically we hear accounts of the mental anguish suffered by the composer, as he grappled with both popular recognition and his worsening respiratory condition.

Frederick the frog isn't looking for adventure. His life in the family pond--hanging out and catching flies--is perfect. Or it would be if a bully wasn't harassing the youngest frogs. To defend them, Frederick accepts a fly-catching challenge, but what he catches isn't an insect. It's a magic ring, and Frederick has swallowed it Whenever he burps or coughs, something terrifying happens to the pond. "Frogs shouldn't have anything to do with human things," says wise Uncle Ben, so to protect his family, Frederick must leave the only world he knows. The world beyond the pond is frightening, but rather than hide or mope, Frederick sets out to get rid of this dangerous human thing. His only hope is to find the small human who tossed the ring into the pond, the boy chased by big men and bigger horses. The boy is in trouble, too, but how can Frederick, one little frog, save a human, much less the pond from an evil sorcerer? A middle grade chapter book, 16 chapters, approximately 18,000 words.

The first and only anthology dedicated to Douglass's three journeys to Britain, covering oratory, print and visual culture The only monograph and anthology to focus on Frederick Douglass's relationship with Britain through unexplored oratory and print culture Provides a monograph-length introduction focusing on Douglass' experiences in the British Isles, from his first visit in 1845, to 1859 and 1886 (the latter two visits have received scant attention from scholars in comparison to his first visit in 1845) Provides specialist and general audiences with political and cultural insights into Frederick Douglass' transatlantic visits Presents speeches, letters and poetry in relation to Douglass' visit (including his own testimony) that have never been published before Examines Douglass' impact on British culture with a section on songs, images and poetry written in response to his lectures Radically updates Douglass' speaking locations in Britain, which is printed alongside a visual map of these locations Provides several images new to scholarship (for instance, the ticket to one of Douglass' lectures in Cambridgeshire) This critical edition documents Frederick Douglass's relationship with Britain through unexplored oratory and print culture. With an unprecedented and comprehensive 60,000-word introduction that places the speeches, letters, poetry and images printed here into context, the sources provide extraordinary insight into the myriad performative techniques Douglass used to win support for the causes of emancipation and human rights. Editors examine how Douglass employed various media letters, speeches, interviews and his autobiographies to convince the transatlantic public not only that his works were worth reading and his voice worth hearing, but also that the fight against racism would continue after his death.
On July 5th, 1852, Frederick Douglass, one of the greatest orators of all time, delivered what was arguably the century's most powerful abolition speech. At a time of year where American freedom is celebrated across the nation, Douglass eloquently summoned the country to resolve the contradiction between slavery and the founding principles of our country. In this book, James A. Colaiaco vividly recreates the turbulent historical context of Douglass' speech and delivers a colorful portrait of the country in the turbulent years leading to the civil war. Now including a reader's guide with discussion points, this book provides a fascinating new perspective on a critical time in American history.
