Couverture de Uncle Tom's Cabin par Harriet Beecher Stowe

Résumé

Unlike many of her fellow Americans in the mid-19th century, Harriet Beecher Stowe recognized the evils of slavery in her country and she refused to keep silent about it. The culmination of her abolitionist activities is the 1852 classic Uncle Tom’s Cabin, which became the second-highest best-seller in America at that time. Although Abraham Lincoln most likely did not greet her as the “the little lady who started this great war,” her contribution to the abolitionist cause and the book’s effect on the minds of the people who read it – people who would soon incite civil war – cannot be understated.
