The Life of Josiah Henson: Formerly a Slave, Now an Inhabitant of Canada is an autobiography written by Josiah Henson and published in 1849. Henson was a former slave who escaped to Canada and became a prominent abolitionist and community leader. The book tells the story of his life as a slave, his escape to freedom, and his experiences as a free man in Canada. It also provides a detailed account of the brutalities of slavery and the challenges faced by those who sought to escape it. The book was an important contribution to the abolitionist movement and helped to raise awareness about the horrors of slavery. It remains a powerful and inspiring account of one man's journey from slavery 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.
