This was a quick read but also an interesting read, we often hear about slavery as we know it of one being captured and uneducated an to only speak when spoken to by the master. This story gave me more insight on the life of Frederick Douglass &WIFE Anna Murray Douglass, you get to see somewhat of a love story of two people who loved each other genuinely and what it took to cross the barriers of racism and slavery you will see more than what history would care to talk about. Thank You to Frederick daughter Rosetta Douglass Sprague for letting us in on what it took for Frederick Douglass and wife Anna Murray to be together as one.

nice

Well written and it gave a little better insight on the amazing Anna Murray Douglass. I wish Mrs. Douglass-Sprague would have given the audience a little more about her mother. As a reader I could tell she was holding back a little details. I’m happy to find out about Mrs. Anna because most of the time you google or look up Fredrick Douglass wife they always talk about the second wife who was white and he had more pictures with.

Denisha bought this because it interested her. When we found out it was 25 pages we both laughed because she thought it was an entire book. Anyways, I feel like you get a tiny look into Anna Douglass' life, but the writing often seems like it lacks purpose or explanations of what is going on. So I don't really know what to make of it.
