This critical edition documents Frederick Douglass's relationship
with Britain through unexplored oratory and print culture. With an
unprecedented and comprehensive 60,000-word introduction that
places the speeches, letters, poetry and images printed here into
context, the sources provide extraordinary insight into the myriad
performative techniques Douglass used to win support for the causes
of emancipation and human rights. Editors examine how Douglass
employed various media - letters, speeches, interviews and his
autobiographies - to convince the transatlantic public not only
that his works were worth reading and his voice worth hearing, but
also that the fight against racism would continue after his death.
