Excellent Book. Well-written account of the horrors of slavery. Very interestingly presented, with good characterizations. It would be difficult to dispute the authenticity of Solomon's portrayal, as he writes with the clear-headedness of an intelligent man who has no "axe to grind," but who is merely stating the facts of his life. I enjoyed reading it, even though the atrocities of mankind toward mankind are Painful to behold. It is imperative that we all remember the depths to which humankind can sink.

Very moving. Hard to imagine what so many people had gone through in the not-so-distant past. This is the second time I read this book, and I was just as moved as I was in my initial reading.

Phenomenal!. Clear & concise account of horrendous experience living through 12 years being a slave.

Twelve years a slave. This story was a perfect reflection of life's twists and turns. We live and learn!

12Years a Slave. Again I write: This engrossing book certainly enlightened me to the atrocities of slavery in America's history. Written by an obviously intelligent mind of the tenacious Solomon Northrup, it is high on my shelf of best books ever.

TaxCPA. This book was a great read. Sadly, works like this and other prolific, firsthand account writings are not commonly apart of high school required readings. Please read this and educate others with your takeaway. Best, TaxCPA

5 stars!!!!. Excellent!! A must read!

Ecellent read!!!!. I felt every heart break, disappointment, fear, loneliness, uncertainty, pain that Mr. Solomon felt throughout his uneventful journey. I'm so HAPPY to know that he had such a great ending! Thank God for the brave & caring Mr. Bass, he was a true heaven send!!

Everyone should read this. Gripping and moving. Written in the period described it allows the reader insight on many levels. It is not a cry for pity or vent of anger but a humble account. Humble words that bring the society and culture of the time alive. Written, brilliantly, I suspect to help the anti slavery campaign. It is fitting that it will now raise awareness in people of the lessons of history.

Mr Torrens. Eloquently painful

12 years a slave. A true account of kidnapping and slavery, heart wrenching.

12 Years A Slave. A book I could not put down. A true account which was heart rendering and beautifully written. Explained in detail the deprivation and in humane treatment of a beautiful race of people that God created as our equals. So moving, it will stay with me for a long time.

12 Years a Slave. An excellent read!

12 years a Slave. Explicit details of the cruel, degrading life as a slave, told by a freeman sold into slavery. Truly an eye opener.

Twelve Years A Slave. Very powerful! This was an excellent literary piece of work. It appeared to accurately depict the life of a slave in the South describing the atrocities that beheld him.
