Description

Six Women's Slave Narratives contains stories that embody most of the themes and narratives found in African-American women's autobiographies from the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Beginning with the first female slave narrative from the Americas, The History of Mary Prince, a West Indian Slave (1831), the collection includes writings by "Old Elizabeth", Mattie J. Jackson, Lucy A. Delaney, Kate Drumgoold, and Annie L. Burton.
