Negative Positive
Title: Erroneous from first page
Review: As president of the New Bedford Historical Society and steward of the first free home of Frederick and Anna Douglass, I am appalled at the errors in the facts contained in this book..starting with the date they met to the name of the city that embraced them.Anna married Frederick and travelled to New Bedford in 1838 and was NOT pregnant. They were guests of black abolitionist Nathan and Polly Johnson in New Bedford, not Bedford, and remained in NB until 1842 or 1843,as documented by City records.When married in NY by Pennigton, Garrison was not present. They had not even met...These are just a few of the errors in the beginning of this book. I realize this is not a text book but to dishonor the memories of Anna and Frederick Douglass to sell books is unacceptable
