Frederick Douglass and Abraham Lincoln were the preeminent self-made men of their time. Douglass spent the first twenty years of his life as a slave, had no formal schooling-in fact, his masters forbade him to read or write-and became one of the nation’s greatest writers and activists, as well as a spellbinding orator and messenger of audacious hope, the pioneer who blazed the path traveled by future African-American leaders.

Attribution
David S. ReynoldsPublication Details
Book1st edAlfred A. Knopf2005Description
Few historical figures are as intriguing as John Brown, the controversial Abolitionist who used terrorist tactics against slavery and single-handedly changed the course of American history. He shows us how Brown seized the nation?s attention, creating sudden unity in the North, where the Transcendentalists led the way in sanctifying Brown, and infuriating the South, where proslavery fire-eaters exploited the Harpers Ferry raid to whip up a secessionist frenzy.

Growing Up Abolitionist : The Story Of The Garrison Children
Attribution
Harriet Hyman AlonsoPublication Details
BookUniversity of Massachusetts Press2002Description
Much has been written about the life of abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison (1805?79), but relatively little attention has been paid to his wife, Helen Benson Garrison, and their seven children. Raised by loving parents to be political activists, the Garrison children, as adults, assumed positions as leaders or participants in those radical causes of their day that most closely reflected their upbringing: racial justice, women’s rights, anti-imperialism, and peace.

Attribution
Stacey M. RobertsonPublication Details
BookCornell University Press2000Description
Robertson’s vivid portrayal of this itinerant agitator revises standard views of the antislavery movement by highlighting the interplay between activists such as Pillsbury and the national leadership, which they often challenged. The biography of a man devoted to justice and equality, this book places his motivations and experiences in the context of nineteenth-century social reform, but never strays far from Pillsbury himself.
