Bond and Free: A True Tale of Slave Times is a book written by James H. W. Howard and published in 1886. The book is a memoir of Howard's experiences during the time of slavery in the United States. Howard was born into slavery in Virginia in 1833 and was later sold to a plantation in Mississippi. He eventually escaped from slavery and made his way to freedom in the North. The book provides a firsthand account of the brutality of slavery and the hardships faced by slaves, as well as the courage and determination of those who sought to escape it. Howard describes the harsh living conditions on the plantation, the cruel treatment of slaves by their masters, and the constant fear of punishment and violence. Despite the difficult subject matter, the book also offers a message of hope and resilience. Howard's own story of escape and freedom serves as an inspiration to others who were seeking to break free from the bonds of slavery. Overall, Bond and Free: A True Tale of Slave Times is an important historical document that provides insight into the realities of slavery in the United States. It is a powerful and moving account of one man's journey from bondage to freedom.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
