About this product

Product Information

Uncle Tom, Topsy, Sambo, Simon Legree, little Eva: their names are American bywords, and all of them are characters in Harriet Beecher Stowe's remarkable novel of the pre-Civil War South. Uncle Tom's Cabin was revolutionary in 1852 for its passionate indictment of slavery and for its presentation of Tom, "a man of humanity," as the first black hero in American fiction. Labeled racist and condescending by some contemporary critics, it remains a shocking, controversial, and powerful work -- exposing the attitudes of white nineteenth-century society toward "the peculiar institution" and documenting, in heartrending detail, the tragic breakup of black Kentucky families "sold down the river." An immediate international sensation, Uncle Tom's Cabin sold 300,000 copies in the first year, was translated into thirty-seven languages, and has never gone out of print: its political impact was immense, its emotional influence immeasurable.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!

  • Since you couldn't be there...

    This book which has the distinction of having never gone out of print since first written in 1852 hardly needs any commentary by me. But, do allow me to say that of all the things written and said about this book's greatness, I'd think that President Lincoln's words to the author, Harriet Beecher Stowe, during a visit to the White House would be the most praiseworthy. It is said that Lincoln greeted her as "the little woman who wrote the book that made this great war." That sort of language alone surely attest to the unsurpassed impact of this piece of fine literature upon the hearts and minds of American's everywhere at that time and even down to our own present day.

  • A must read classic

    A rally cry for the abolitionist movement, this novel which depicts the horrors of slavery and the complexities of the slave trade and the slave/owner relationship is a necessity for understanding our countries history. The "accent" in which much of the book is written takes some getting used to, but is soon absorbed while the story builds.

  • Uncle Tom's Cabin

    I wanted to read this book for years and because of controversial content,have not been able to locate a copy. I was so excited to find it on Ebay. I am convinced that whatever you are looking for, Ebay accomodates.
