12 Years a Slave

12 Years a Slave

By Solomon Northup United States 28/02/2014

This unforgettable memoir was the basis for the Academy Award nominated film 12 Years a Slave. This is the true story of Solomon Northup, who was born and raised as a freeman in New York. He lived the American dream, with a house and a loving family - a wife and two kids. Then one day he was drugged, kidnapped, and sold into slavery in the deep south. These are the true accounts of his twelve hard years as a slave - many believe this memoir is even more graphic and disturbing than the film. His extraordinary journey proves the resiliency of hope and the human spirit despite the most grueling and formidable of circumstances. Includes the original illustrations.

Reviews
  • Wow

    Very powerful book about the deception of how some became of slavery.

    By jae dorsey

  • Loved the Book - Exciting and Moving

    I saw the movie and had to read the book. The book is very powerful, with a lot of interesting parts that weren’t in the film. Highly recommend it. And this version has the illustrations.
