Description
""Fifty Years In Chains: Or The Life Of An American Slave"" is a memoir written by Charles Ball, an African American who was born into slavery in Maryland in the late 18th century. The book recounts Ball's life as a slave, including his experiences on various plantations and his eventual escape to freedom in the North. Throughout the book, Ball provides a detailed and vivid account of the brutal conditions of slavery, including the physical and emotional abuse he endured, the separation of families, and the constant fear of punishment. He also describes the ways in which slaves resisted their oppressors, including through acts of rebellion and sabotage. In addition to recounting his own experiences, Ball also offers insights into the broader history of slavery in America, including the transatlantic slave trade, the economics of the plantation system, and the political and social factors that allowed slavery to persist for centuries. Overall, ""Fifty Years In Chains"" is a powerful and moving testament to the resilience and strength of those who survived slavery, as well as a valuable historical document that sheds light on a dark period in American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
