Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass (1845), the gripping slave narrative that helped change the course of American history, reveals the true nature of the black experience in slavery.
Old Times on the Mississippi (1875), Mark Twainâs unforgettable account of a riverboat pilotâs life, established his signature style and shows us the metamorphosis of a man into a writer.
Four Autobiographical Narratives (1900â1902), published in the Atlantic Monthly by Zitkala-Sa (Red Bird), also known as Gertrude Bonnin, provide us with a voice too seldom heard: a Native American woman fighting for her culture in the white manâs world.
