Life Among the Lowly

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.

A moving story of our nation’s past

A moving story of our nation’s sad misdealings with the African people. Important for everyone to remember how far we have come and a reminder to never let the past repeat itself. Commitment to God and faith throughout is amazing. Let all the world over condemn all forms of slavery and oppression and this world would be a better place.

Second time...

I’ve now listened to this book twice and worth every minute. It is both sad as well as heartwarming.

Take it slow

Now maudlin, now horrifying, still
all too relevant. Magnificent writing and narration. But do slow it down to 90%.

This book is really deep...😢

This book is really amazing, and i must have cried at least ten times while listening. The narrator is awesome too, she does a great job with the voices. But, this book is just so sad! It's just people being treated like animals and they can't do anything about it. Also, this book is from a long time ago, so you will hear an ugly word for African Americans over and over again.

Uncle Tom is not who you think he is.

Good story. It was interesting to hear the white prospective of slavery views during that time. I was surprised that Uncle Tom is nothing like what those who never read this book think he is, and that the book isn’t really about him.

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.
