Frederick Douglass : Selected Speeches and Writings
Frederick Douglass (Author), Philip S. Foner (Editor), Yuval Taylor (Editor)
Annotation One of the greatest African American leaders and one of the most brilliant minds of his time, Frederick Douglass spoke and wrote with unsurpassed eloquence on almost all the major issues confronting the American people during his lifefrom the abolition of slavery to womens rights, from the Civil War to lynching, from American patriotism to black nationalism. Between 1950 and 1975, Philip S. Foner collected the most important of Douglasss hundreds of speeches, letters, articles, and editorials into an impressive five-volume set, now long out of print. Abridged and condensed into one volume, and supplemented with several important texts that Foner did not include, this compendium presents the most significant, insightful, and elegant short works of Douglasss massive oeuvre
