'Up from Slavery' is an autobiography written by Booker T. Washington, an African American educator, author, and advisor to presidents of the United States. The book was first published in 1901 and provides a firsthand account of Washington’s life, from his childhood in slavery to his rise as a prominent and influential figure in American history. One of the key themes of 'Up from Slavery' is Washington’s philosophy of industrial education and vocational training as a means for African Americans to achieve economic independence and social progress. The book also offers valuable insights into the social and political climate of the late 19th and early 20th centuries in the United States.This new large print edition is designed to make reading comfortable.
