2025-09-10 Just finished reading this a few days ago.
Super-powerful.
I listened to the audio-book (Librivox edition) about 7-8 years ago, which I have also reviewed and recommend.
I loved that audio version and I love this kindle version perhaps even more!
Gosh, what a master of fiction, language, moral persuasion, history, tragedy, characterization, dialects, etc. Stowe is. I studied slavery and the civil war over three courses in college and this book was not required, or even highly suggested in any of them! Can you believe that? Unfathomable to me now, after having read it twice.
Treat yourself to this wonderful book if you have any interest in any of the topics I named above.

Always wanted to read this book.
I didn't read this book in high school and glad I didn't because I wouldn't have understood the way I do now. Good description of how things were during the antebellum south. The author describes many different characters and scenes so vividly, you think you're there witnessing it for yourself.
