I have begun another book. This one is an autobiography
Douglass wrote his story three times over the years. This is the last version. I like it so much that I have decided to serialize the early years here so everyone can get caught up.

Easton, Maryland, is a delightful little town today. The Bartlett Pear Inn is a nice B&B that has an outstanding restaurant open to the public. Julia's just possibly makes the best sandwiches I've ever had.
There was still a monument to the county's Confederate veterans at the courthouse, or at least was as of about a year ago.
The Eastern Shore is still mainly an agricultural region, although obviously on a completely different basis than in Frederick Douglass's day.

Thank you for posting this, and I look forward to further excerpts. From what little I know of him Frederick Douglass was a great man, someone who truly spoke truth to power.
