Hardcover. Condición: Near Fine. No Jacket. Series I, History, Number 1. Editor's Note [Negro Publication Society] by Angelo Herndon. Introduction by L.D. Reddick. 8vo. 315p. Appendix by Dr. William H. Furness, which recounts the story of Seth Concklin, a Negro, whose body was taken from the Ohio River, near Smithland, in irons, and buried in irons as a "Negro thief'. How he died was not determined. Grey cloth with letters in maroon on the front cover and the spine. Just touches of wear to extremities with nothing rubbed through, spine ever so slightly darkened, covers ever so slightly soiled, else near fine to fine with no internal markings. No dust jacket. This is a Negro Publication Society of America reprint of a slave narrative originally published in 1856. It is the story of Peter Still and his wife Vina after 40 years of slavery as dictated to Kate Pickard. Kidnapped from New Jersey as a child, Still spent 40+ years in slavery before he was able to purchase his freedom with the assistance of two southern Jewish merchants, Isaac and Joseph Friedman. Kate Pickard came to know Still in 1847 while she was a teacher at the Female Seminary of Tuscumbia, Alabama, where Still had been employed. Pickard herself was eye-witness to many of the startling and disturbing episodes of this era of American history.
