Uncle Tom's Cabin was the best-selling novel of the 19th century and the second best-selling book of that century, following the Bible. It is credited with helping fuel the abolitionist cause in the 1850s. In 1855, three years after it was published, it was called "the most popular novel of our day."

Perfect

I recommend that everyone should read this accurate portrayal of the darkness that was slavery.

Great bang for your buck!

Great narration, and you can't beat the price. A classic story, wonderfully told. Two thumbs up!

Amazing book

I was transfixed by the performance of the reader. Harriet Beecher Stowe is in my opinion a person that was given a gift to shape the course of humanity
I had no idea what I was in for. This book is and will remain one of my favorites. It left a huge impact on me and I only wish it could become required reading in school.

Better late than never.

This book is something I should have read sixty years ago. I could have saved myself alot of grief from wasted bias.

Astounding.

completely misrepresented in our day, this story is an amazing & emotional depiction of the worst time in our nation's history where brother, sister, mother, father, parent, child, wife & husband stood against each other morally. we could never comprehend in our day what any of them went through, especially the African American. Many a person or group has suffered throu history, our past is something that can bring us together. Stories like these help us be humble in our circumstance & bond individuals & groups through our strife. History is important, may we never forget & always strive forward with determination to over come each generations struggles while never returning to past struggles.

One of the best narrators!

The story is legendary! The book is great, but the narrator takes it over the top! I give her 10 stars!

I've heard about the book often. I avoided it related to the slave factor. This was my error. The book is filled with Gospel. Moving characters. I found myself sad for the characters fate and appalled that Southerners and others treated them so badly. but now I have a better perspective of their plight.

powerful

I want to especially call out the narrator. I felt like I was hearing every word as if it was coming straight from the authors mouth. Just excellent performance.

I doubt I could say anything about the book that hasn't already been said a thousand times, so I'll just reiterate that if you want to better understand the consequences of slavery and the politics surrounding it, this is essential reading. Worth your time and your money, even if you have very little of each.

Beautifully and eloquently written.

The brutality of slavery, it's moral and social implications of the system is laid out for all to see. My heart is heavy.

Awesome Book!

This audiobook should be required listening in for every student in high student. I wish I had heard it years ago.
