Title: Uncle Tom's Cabin
Review: I had always heard about this particular book through history class. Finally my eighth grade history teacher encouraged me to read it. I really enjoyed it. It made me laugh and it made me cry. It also made me think. I was familiar with slavery and their hardships, but this book is not a biography. It's more real. It stirred feelings of disgust in me when I read about the overseers of the slave plantations - same as it did 100 years ago.Harriet Beecher Stowe showed how lucky slaves could be and how lucky most of them wasn't. She used a southern dialect that was most likely used by slaves. She also included slave folklore and songs. Anybody who loves a great story that tells the truth should read it. I've passed it onto friends and they love it too.
