Harriet Beecher Stowe

W. W. Norton, 2006

excellent background but read the novel first
John Updike reviews this new edition in the Nov 6 New Yorker, which is available online and well worth looking up. With 100 pages to go, Updike tired of the "irritable sniping from the sidelines" and switched to the standard Library of America edition. A few months ...

Uncle Tom's Cabin (Signet Classics)

Harriet Beecher Stowe

Signet Classics, 2008

Powerful
At 59-years old, I've crossed paths with this book my entire life. This year, I finally decided to sit down and read it. Harriet Beecher Stowe's writing style is typical of her era and might be considered awkward over 150 years after she wrote this book. Still, the ...

Uncle Tom's Cabin (Wordsworth Classics)

Harriet Beecher Stowe

Wordsworth Editions Ltd, 1999

A towering, very important American classic
For whatever reasons, I'm one of those who, over the years, never gave "Uncle Tom's Cabin" much thought. I'm afraid I dismissed the book based on the derogatory cliche of describing a complacent black man as an Uncle Tom. What a pleasure to find how wrong I was. ...

Uncle Tom's Cabin (Thrift Edition)

Harriet Beecher Stowe

Dover Publications, 2005

A Real Classic!

Brilliance Audio on CD Unabridged, 2005

Excellent, interseting and vocabulary enriching
Due to time constraints and long drive to and from work/other places, I opted to listen to the audio instead of reading the book. This turned out to be a great decision! The audio was clear with deeply enriching array of voices for different characters that served to ...

Uncle Tom's Cabin (Aladdin Classics)

Harriet Beecher Stowe

Aladdin, 2002

As a history major...
This book was incredible. Yes it can be racist, and extremist at times, but at it's core you're reading a piece of history. For a book to sell 300,000 copies during it's original publication in the mid 19th century is astounding. You're reading a book that had a part ...

Key to Uncle Tom's Cabin

Harriet Beecher Stowe

Applewood Books(MA), 1998

"it was a good book and I could read it over and over again.
"Uncle Tom's Cabin was a very good book. I wouldn't encourage younger people like 4th and 5th graders to read it, but I think everyone needs to read it by the time they graduate from school."
