Uncle Tom's Granddaughter: A Civil War Era Family Saga

In 1883, Thomasina was given a leather-bound journal for her 10th birthday. For the next 80 years, she detailed within its pages the story of her life. When the journal was found decades after her death, her writings exposed a family secret that was never meant to be told. The story that unfolds reveals your past doesn't dictate your future and that we are all more alike than we are different.Harriet Beecher Stowe was an American journalist and fervent advocate for the abolishment of slavery. She wrote Uncle Tom's Cabin in 1852 to educate the non-slave-owning public on the horrors and injustices of human bondage. Less than a decade later, Americans were embroiled in the Civil War. In Uncle Tom's Granddaughter, we are reintroduced to the man whose tragic story ignited a nation to end slavery once and for all.
