Synopsis
Autobiographical accounts of former slaves compiled in the 1930s by the Federal Writers Project of the Works Progress Administration., The view that slavery could best be described by those who had themselves experienced it personally has found expression in several thousand commentaries, autobiographies, narratives, and interviews with those who "endured." Although most of these accounts appeared before the Civil War, more than one-third are the result of the ambitious efforts of the Federal Writers' Project of the Works Progress Administration (WPA) to interview surviving ex-slaves during the 1930s. The result of these efforts was the Slave Narrative Collection, a group of autobiographical accounts of former slaves that today stands as one of the most enduring and noteworthy achievements of the WPA. Compiled in seventeen states during the years 1936-38, the collection consists of more than two thousand interviews with former slaves, most of them first-person accounts of slave life and the respondents' own reactions to bondage. The interviews afforded aged ex-slaves an unparalleled opportunity to give their personal accounts of life under the "peculiar institution," to describe in their own words what it felt like to be a slave in the United States. -Norman R. Yetman, American Memory, Library of Congress This paperback edition of selected South Carolina narratives, is reprinted in facsimile from the typewritten pages of the interviewers, just as they were originally typed., The view that slavery could best be described by those who had themselves experienced it personally has found expression in several thousand commentaries, autobiographies, narratives, and interviews with those who "endured."

- a***6 (1061)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimo annoAcquisto verificatoI have long known about these narratives, but it is nice to be able to find a printed version by state. This turned out to be in excellent condition, was delivered very quickdly, in good packaging, and was so fascinting that I practically read through it immediately. Not easy reading.....not because of the subject, but because it was reproduced from the actual typescript in the Library of Congress, and it attempts to capture the dialectical speech of the participants.

- b***i (999)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoArcadia Publishing offered this brand new book at a much more reasonable price than other sellers were asking for this book, both new & used, on Ebay. Book arrived on time, in brand new, great condition, well packed in bubble wrap inside of a sturdy cardboard mailer. No damage; in perfect condition as described, within the dates seller promised. Very pleased with this transaction, thank you!

Especially noteworthy was that for a competitive price, this seller shipped the book in a cardboard box, protecting this new item, unlike the more common experience of books shipped in a plastic sleeve/mailer, which sometimes arrives ripped or torn. Highly recommended.
