| 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. |

| The Autobiography of Benvenuto Cellini |
| Benvenuto Cellini (1500 - 1571) |
This is one of the most colorful and fascinating autobiographies and what a wild, wild ride it is. Benvenuto Cellini the untameable goldsmith, sculptor, musician, artilleryman, sharpshooter, wheedler, and brute gives us the story of his life in his own words. Although esteemed for his art, when push came to shove he could as effectively dispatch an enemy with his words as with his sword. Cellini lived as the Italian renaissance was peaking where he was able to create masterpieces for his patrons - kings, popes, and leaders of sometimes waring Italian city-states. |
