this is the book that changed American history. Uncle Tom's Cabin was revolutionary in 1852 for its passionate indictment of slavery and for its presentation of Tom, a man of humanity, as the first black hero in American fiction. This version, written by the author for children, documents in heartrending detail, the tragic breakup of black Kentucky families sold down the river. Uncle Tom's Cabin was an immediate international sensation, sold 300,000 copies in the first year, was translated into thirty-seven languages and has never gone out of print.
