Hardcover. Etat : Near Fine. Sojourner Truth (1797 - 1893) was an African American woman who was an evangelist and an early and tireless advocate for abolition, temperance, civil rights and women's rights. Born as a slave, she escaped in 1827 with her infant daughter to a neighbor's farm and was the first black woman to successfully sue for the return of her son. She gave herself the name Sojourner Truth in response to a religious calling to "testify the hope that was within her." She died in Battle Creek, Michigan. Her "Narrative" was dictated by her over period of about two years to Olive Gilbert, a friend she met at a Utopian Comunity in Massachusetts. Gilbert had the "Narrative" published in 1850. This is a finely bound facsimilie reprint of the 1875 edition which contains more information than the original 1850 edition and also eliminates the 1850 edition's inclusion of a portion of Theodore Weld's book "American Slavery" as an appendix. Later editions such as this one included selections of her correspondence as well as additional information on her life. Easton Press is well-known for its fine bindings. This copy is in a full brown leather binding with raised spine bands with five compartments. Cover and spine decorations in 22 kt gold, all edges gilt, silk moire end papers with silk ribbon bookmark, printed on archival acid-free paper with smyth sewing. There is also a gilt-decorated brown slipcase with this book. This is a nice clean, tight and unmarked book with no interior or exterior markings and no owner book plate has been affixed to the book (although the book plate that accompanies all Easton Press books is loosely inserted in the book and is not filled in). This book will make a wonderful addition to any library and would also make a fine gift. ; B&W Illustrations; 8vo, 8"- 9" tall; 324 pages.

Edition originale
Rare first revised edition of the book that brought Truth's remarkable story to the world and the first edition of The Book of Life. Octavo, original cloth, gilt titles to the spine, illustrated frontispiece portrait of Truth. In very good condition, contemporary ownership inscription on front free endpaper. Rare and desirable. âA legend in her own time, Truthâs indomitable will has won her a permanent place in American History. Her evangelic fervor and plain wit helped to advance the causes of emancipation and womenâs rightsâ (Blockson 29). Evangelist, abolitionist, reformer and womenâs rights advocate Sojourner Truth was born to James and Elizabeth Baumfree, both slaves of a Dutch family in Ulster County, New York. Named âIsabelleâ by her parents, she developed deep religious feelings from her mother, from whom she was separated at age nine. After a number of new masters, and four children later, she escaped her last servitude shortly before the mandated New York State emancipation took effect on July 4, 1827. âI did not run off, for I thought that wicked, but I walked off, believing that to be all right.â In 1843 she renamed herself âTruthâ for God, and âSojournerâ because she intended to âtravel up and down the land,â preaching and testifying. She became associated with such renowned abolitionists as William Lloyd Garrison, Frederick Douglass, and David Ruggles, and toured the country speaking out against slavery. Her Narrative, dictated to her friend Olive Gilbert and subsidized by Garrison, gave Sojourner an income and increased her speaking engagements, where she sold copies of the book. In 1854, at the Ohio Womanâs Rights Convention in Akron, Ohio, she gave her most famous speechâ" with the legendary refrain, âAinât I a Woman?â: âThat man over there says that women need to be helped into carriages, and lifted over ditches, and to have the best place everywhere. Nobody ever helps me into carriages, or over mud puddles, or gives me any best place, and ainât I a woman?⦠I have borne thirteen children and seen most all sold off to slavery and when I cried out with my motherâs grief, none but Jesus heard meâ" and ainât I woman?â (Blockson, 3434; Schomburg, 326).

Edition originale
First Revised Edition. First Printing. Octavo (19.75cm); dark blue-green cloth, with titling and portrait of the author stamped in gilt on spine and front cover; xii,[13]-324pp, with an engraved tissue-guarded frontispiece portrait of the author, and the errata slip tipped onto the preface at gutter. Contemporary ink ownership inscription to front pastedown ("L.G. Ransom's Book" - possibly Limon G. Ransom, a Methodist churchman from Iowa), with a holograph correction and marginal annotation on the Preface page in an editorial hand. Light wear to spine ends and corner tips, a tiny rubbed spot to right edge of rear cover, hint of sunning to spine, with faint creases to a handful of page corners, subtle toning to the edges of the frontispiece, and a brief (early) holograph note in pencil on p.324; hinges sound, with the text notably fresh and without foxing; Near Fine. "Her given name was Isabella. Standing six feet tall with a deep, resonant voice, this unlettered former Ulster County, New York, slave assumed the name 'Sojourner' because, she said, 'I was to travel up and down the land showin' the people their sins an' bein a sign unto them.' She electrified her audiences and irritated those who did not agree with her. Alone and in company with her friend Frederick Douglass and other leading abolitionists, always in the plainest of clothes, she wandered the land speaking with an orator's eloquence and a victim's rage against slavery and for women's rights" (Blockson 29, One Hundred and One Influential Books). In the hopes of imitating the success of Douglass's Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, An American Slave (1845), she began dictating her own story to her friend Olive Gilbert, who helped shape it into Narrative of Sojourner Truth, A Northern Slave (1850). Proceeds from sales of the book and cartes-de-visite enabled her to purchase a home in Florence, Massachusetts. A second edition was published in 1853, though the most significant changes to the text would appear in this 1875 edition, with significant edits to the text, and considerably expanded to include her "Book of Life," speeches, and various quotes. An exemplary copy of one of the cornerstone works on the African-American experience. BLOCKSON 3434.
