American Slavery As It Is combines information taken from witnesses, and from active and former slave owners, to generate a condemnation of slavery from both those who observed it and those who perpetuated it. The narrative describes the appalling day-to-day conditions of the over 3,000,000 men, women and children in slavery in the United States. American Slavery As It Is demonstrates how even prisoners–in the United States and in other countries–were significantly treated better and better fed than American slaves. Readers will find one of the most meticulous records of slave life in the United States available in this text. Unlike personal slave narratives, which focus on a single man or woman’s experience, American Slavery details the overall conditions of slaves across multiple states and several years.
