About this audiobook
"Uncle Tom's Cabin," published in 1852, is an anti-slavery novel by American author Harriet Beecher Stowe. The story follows the lives of several enslaved African Americans, primarily Uncle Tom, as they navigate the harsh realities of slavery in the United States. Stowe wrote the novel as a response to the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 and intended to portray the immorality of slavery. The book had a profound impact on American public opinion and is often credited with helping to galvanize the abolitionist movement.
Harriet Beecher Stowe
Harriet Beecher Stowe was an American author and abolitionist. Born in Litchfield, Connecticut, she was raised in a deeply religious family and educated in a seminary school run by her elder sister. In her adult life, Stowe married biblical scholar and abolitionist Calvin Ellis Stowe, who would later go on to work as Harriet’s literary agent, and the two participated in the Underground Railroad by providing temporary refuge for escaped slaves travelling to the American North. Shortly before the outbreak of the American Civil War, Stowe published her most famous work, Uncle Tom’s Cabin, a stark and sympathetic depiction of the desperate lives of African American slaves. The book went on to see unprecedented sales, and informed American and European attitudes towards abolition. In the years leading up to her death, suffering from dementia or Alzheimer’s disease, Stowe is said to have begun re-writing Uncle Tom’s Cabin, almost word-for-word, believing that she was writing the original manuscript once again. Stowe died in July 1, 1896 at the age of eighty-five.
