Publisher's Summary

Up from Slavery is the 1901 autobiography of Booker T. Washington

Born into slavery, Booker Washington suddenly gained his freedom after the American Civil War. This is a firsthand account from a slave around the events of the Emancipation Proclamation.

The book covers the inspiring story of a young man as he works to rise up from being enslaved as a child, overcoming massive obstacles to obtain an education, to eventually become an advisor to the president.

A truly inspiring and informative story.
