If you only ever read one book on slavery and the abolitionist movement, it really ought to be 'Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass'. I can remember reading it for the first time at uni as part of a module on American History, and just how potently it brought home the realities of what it was to be in the situation Douglass was in.
