A Narrative Of The Life Of Noah Davis: A Colored Man (1859) is an autobiographical account of the life of Noah Davis, an African American man who was born into slavery in Virginia in the early 19th century. The book details his experiences as a slave, his escape to freedom, and his subsequent life as a free man in the North. Davis describes the harsh conditions he endured as a slave, including the physical abuse he suffered at the hands of his masters. He also recounts the various jobs he held as a slave, including working as a blacksmith and a field hand. Davis eventually escaped to freedom by hiding in a boat and making his way to Philadelphia. Once in the North, Davis struggled to establish himself as a free man. He faced discrimination and racism, and was often denied employment and housing because of his race. Despite these challenges, Davis eventually found work as a barber and was able to support himself and his family. Throughout the book, Davis reflects on the injustices of slavery and the importance of freedom. He also offers his perspective on the abolitionist movement and the role of African Americans in the fight for their own liberation. Overall, A Narrative Of The Life Of Noah Davis: A Colored Man is a powerful and insightful account of one man’s journey from slavery to freedom. It offers a firsthand look at the realities of slavery and the struggles faced by African Americans in the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
