Harrisburg, [Pennsylvania]: Edwin K. Meyers, 1886 First edition, first state (with the frontisportrait). Publisher's brown cloth titled in gilt. . Octavo. Frontisportrait. Minor edgewear. Pencil ownership signature, dated 1889, to front flyleaf. Light marginal toning. A very good, very clean copy of this antislavery novel by an important Black publisher and politician in Philadelphia. The present novel weaves together the stories of many different people enslaved on Virginia plantations, centering around a woman named Elva and the escape from slavery of her two sons, Henry and Joseph. In the preface, the author writes, "The incidents related are true, while the adventures of the fugitives, in their escape from slavery, are actual facts related by persons well known to me, some of them closely related, and for whose veracity I can safely vouch…[As] one of that race, now struggling for a position in the Nation which once refused to recognize their manhood I trust I shall not be harshly censure for depicting a few of the milder forms of treatment to which the negro was subjected while enslaved," (p. 3).
