Frederick Douglass is a familiar name to many students, but the incredible impact he left on U.S. history is sometimes lost amid the other facts and faces in social studies textbooks. By focusing on his powerful story of slavery, freedom, and impassioned abolitionist beliefs, this engaging and educational text gives readers a deeper understanding of why the words he spoke and wrote still carry so much weight today. Fact-filled sidebars, detailed graphic organizers, and historical photographs complement the age-appropriate main text, which presents sensitive material in a thoughtful way.
