- Summary
- "A free man of color, Solomon Northup was kidnapped and sold into slavery in the pre-Civil War South. For 12 years, Northup faced the degradation of slavery, undergoing daily trials that sapped his humanity and tested every ounce of his resolve. Here, in his own words, Northup relates the day-to-day life of a slave, the nature of the slave owners he came into contact with, and, most importantly, the hidden reserves of strength that enabled him to struggle ever forward toward eventual freedom."--Container
