Born into slavery in Maryland, Frederick Douglass was separated from his family by the age of six to serve at the “Great House” on the Wye Plantation in Maryland. He never imagined the cruelties he would witness or the indignities of his family being treated like cattle to be sold, divided, and scattered far and wide. After he escaped, Douglass became a national leader of the abolitionist movement in America, the greatest orator of his day, an influential newspaper publisher, writer, and statesman, and the most important African American of the nineteenth century. In this Heroes of History volume, the engaging narrative format connects related history, geography, government, and science topics with the remarkable true stories of the shapers of history. 192 pages, softcover. Grades 4 and up.
