Uncle Tom's Cabin is one of those books that everybody has heard of, but few people have actually read. It deserves to be read - not just because it is one of the bestselling books of all time, nor the case that its vivid dramatization of slavery’s cruelties so aroused readers, that Abraham Lincoln told Stowe her work had been a catalyst for the Civil War. This is a book that changed history.

Harriet Beecher Stowe was appalled by slavery, and she took one of the few options open to nineteenth century women who wanted to affect public opinion: she wrote a novel, a huge, enthralling narrative that claimed the heart, soul, and politics of pre-Civil War Americans. In a time when many whites claimed slavery had "good effects" on blacks, Uncle Tom's Cabin paints pictures of three plantations, each worse than the other, where even the best plantation leaves a slave at the mercy of fate or debt.

Though “Uncle Tom” has become a synonym for a submissive black yes-man, Stowe’s Tom is actually American literature’s first black hero, a man who suffers for refusing to obey his white oppressors. Yet her questions remain penetrating even today: "Is man ever a creature to be trusted with wholly irresponsible power?" Uncle Tom’s Cabin is a living, relevant story, passionate in its vivid depiction of the cruelest forms of injustice and inhumanity—and the courage it takes to fight against them.

Explains a Great Deal

I read Uncle Tom's Cabin a few years ago, and was genuinely touched. I saw immediately why it became one of the most influential books in the history of our country, and possibly the world. The story of Uncle Tom is sure to leave you changed, whether you are black or white, racist or humanitarian. It really explains how different people viewed the institution of slavery. After reading this book, many die-hard proponents of slavery gave up defending it. And abollitionists were fired up more than ever before. If you read only 5 books this year, let Uncle Tom's Cabin be one of them. You'll never look at slavery, US history, or the plight of black people the same!

Great Classic

Our book club decided to read some old classics and we were all surprised to find that none of our members had read Uncle Tom's Cabin, except a French woman who had read it in school in French! A little hard to get into with the style of writing and the dialog, it soon became a real page-turner for me as I got caught up in the story and the characters. Stowe paints a very interesting picture of the times, and it provoked one of the best discussions that our book club has had. No wonder this book was a best seller, both in the US and Europe. Highly recommend this book!

If you liked this book you will probably like:

  • Benjamin Franklin is one man that continues to be looked up to throughout history. Virtually self-taught, he excelled as an athlete, a man of letters, a printer, a scientist, a wit, an inventor, an editor, and a writer, and he was probably the most successful diplomat in American history. David Hume hailed him as the first great philosopher and great man of letters in the New World.

    Franklin's autobiography was initially written to guide his son through the lively tales and spellbinding account of his unique and eventful life.

  • At the very least, 30% of the American population suffer from a depression. This disease can not only destroy people suffering with it, but everyone around them, especially their loved ones.

    Stop Your Depression Now! will help you win the battle against depression. Written by a licensed clinical counselor who spent her life helping families and individuals fight depression, this book contains all the real-world advice you need to understand this disease and control it.

    All the advice in a simple book

  • This classic time-management book has inspired generations of men and women to live conscious, deliberate lives. Originally published in 1908, this collection of time-saving tips is still amazingly current as it discusses the challenge to live the fullest life possible.

  • War and Peace is a novel by Leo Tolstoy, first published from 1865 to 1869, which tells the story of Russian society during the Napoleonic Era. It is usually described as one of Tolstoy's two major masterpieces (the other being Anna Karenina) as well as one of the world's greatest novels.

    War and Peace offered a new kind of fiction, with a great many characters caught up in a plot that covered nothing less than the grand subjects indicated by the title, combined with the equally large topics of youth, marriage, age, and death.
