Pela primeira vez traduzida para Português (Europeu), esta obra de Frederick Douglass, também pela primeira vez publicada e disponibilizada em Portugal em LÃngua Portuguesa, através da ContraEscrita, Edições, conta com a tradução de Philipe Pharo.
O Escravo Heroico: Em Busca da Liberdade (1852), a única obra de ficção escrita por um dos primeiros autores afroamericanos da História, Frederick Douglass, um dos grandes e verdadeiros heróis abolicionistas norte-americanos, tendo ele próprio sido escravo e alcançado a libertação, contribuiu diretamente para a libertação da escravatura de mais de quatrocentos seres humanos. Douglass foi o primeiro afroamericano a ser candidato a Vice-Presidente dos Estados Unidos, e o primeiro a ter um voto em primárias para uma candidatura a Presidente. Foi também apoiante dos primeiros movimentos sufragistas e feministas dos E.U.A..
Nesta novela de Frederick Douglass, um escravo cheio de sede por Liberdade, e em fuga, entra nos terrenos da casa de um casal, acaba por ser bem recebido e conta-lhes a sua história de fuga em busca da libertação da escravatura e ganha-lhes a sua solidariedade, disponibilizando-se a ajudá-lo nos seus intentos da melhor forma que puderem.
Madison Washington, o escravo, consegue embarcar secretamente para o Canadá, mas regressa os Estados Unidos para salvar a sua esposa da escravatura e é novamente apanhado. Devolvido ao mercado de escravos, embarca num navio negreiro onde acaba por liderar uma revolta.
Frederick Douglass conta-nos assim, numa mescla de ficção e biografia, a história de um Escravo Heroico que tudo faz para alcançar a sua Liberdade, e a dos seus semelhantes.
