Good book, >Historical.. Slavery ended 164 years ago. The Civil War was fought to ensure it truly was abolished. The last vestiges of social prejudice were overcome in the 1960s, in what’s called the Civil Rights movement. It’s curious why, with so many victories behind us, and the black population so upwardly mobile today, anyone wants to resurrect the dead past.

Eye opening. This personal diary of 12 years of slavery of the author was an excellent read for me. Raised in the South I grew up with a “mixed” perspective of slavery. My mother was a Yankee. My father experienced first hand discrimination of black and red men. He was a high ranking officer during the integration of the military in 1947-48. I observed many signs of discrimination while growing up. But never knew many of the intimate details described in this book. It should be required reading at the high school level.

Utterly incredible!. What a story… will leave a lasting impact on me for some time.

Did not expect this to be as interesting as it was. I was concerned that it could have been deeply upsetting but as the author says himself, he concentrated on some of the brighter side of slavery, as if such thing can exist in man’s inhumanity to man!

Sad reading. This book is a classic it’s a must read heart breaking and brilliant

Heartbreaking and informative read. To read the horror of what Solomon experienced and witnessed is something that will stay with me forever. Cannot imagine how it must have been for him as a free man to be kidnapped into slavery or imagine how slaves must have felt. A must read for all I would say

I have to go get back in. I don’t think we need to go

Unimaginable. We all like to believe we can have pity on the misfortunes of others, to sympathise and even empathise. But we will never be able to fully grasp the concepts in this book. Well worth the read, it will fill you with fear and dread and happiness alike, can’t recommend it more
