Eneas Africanus is a novel written by Harry Stillwell Edwards and published in 1922. The story is set in the antebellum South and follows the life of Eneas, a slave who is sold from his plantation in Georgia to a plantation in Alabama. Eneas is intelligent and resourceful, and he uses his skills to gain favor with his new master, Mr. John Waller. Eneas eventually becomes a trusted servant and confidant to Mr. Waller, and he is given more freedom than most slaves of his time. However, Eneas still longs for his freedom, and he makes plans to escape to the North. Along the way, he meets other slaves who are also seeking freedom, and they form a bond and work together to achieve their goal. The novel explores the themes of slavery, freedom, and the struggle for equality in the United States. Edwards' writing style is engaging and descriptive, and he brings the characters and settings to life with vivid detail. Eneas Africanus is a powerful and thought-provoking novel that offers a unique perspective on the history of slavery in America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
