Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Cabin and Parlor: Or, Slaves and Masters
The remark attributed to Uncle Peter, on refusing to be emancipated, was made to the author by one, who though formerly a slave, is now free, and who is altogether, the most intelligent and energetic African he ever knew. Generally the language put into the mouth of Uncle Peter and others is drawn from memory.
