This was an interesting and quite shocking account of Olaudah Equiano, a freedman in 18th century Great Britain who’s autobiography was important for the abolition of slave trade. Rather, this edition contained some chapters from his autobiography
As has been the case for many of the collected editions in the Little Black Classics, the selection of the chapters seems to have been rather random. While they provide a sample or a little taste they are not curated enough to be able to stand on their own. Same applies with Kidnapped, I will have to read the full account.
Kidnapped (Little Black Classics #92) – Olaudah Equiano
Oh, I thought this was going to be the book by Robert Louis Stevenson….

Stevenson is included elsewhere in the collection with his short story Olalla, somewhere in the low numbers if I recall correctly.
