Clotel: Or, the President's Daughter: a Narrative of Slave Life in the United States

Description

This edition of 'Clotel' is the only one to include selections from the key texts and cultural documents that Brown drew upon when he wrote his novel. The streamlined second edition includes an updated introduction and features cultural documents which focus more directly on the texts about slavery and race that Brown used.
