| Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl |
| Harriet Jacobs aka Linda Brent (1813 - 1897) |
Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl is a memoir by Harriet Jacobs and was first published in 1861 under the assumed name "Linda Brent". As the title suggests, it tells of her life as a slave and chronicles the harassments, horrors, tortures and traumas that she, and other slaves, endured. It is a narrative that draws attention not only to the conflicts between owner and slave but also that between men and women. An eye-opening account. A must read. |

| Barriers Burned Away |
| Edward Payson Roe (1838 - 1888) |
1872 Best Seller.
In his day E. P. Roe was a bigger seller than Mark Twain.
A story of the Chicago fire.
"We accord a hearty commendation to this work. The narrative is vigorous, often intense, but rarely if ever melodramatic.
Its language is usually no less chaste than forcible and impressive.
It betrays a power of invention and description which is not met with every day in the best of writers of popular fiction."
-- Dr. Ripley, in the New York Tribune (contemporary review)
