Narrative of the Life of John Quincy Adams: When in Slavery, and Now as a Freeman

by John Quincy Adams

Overview

Every book has its preface--a book without a preface would be like a city without a directory, or an animal with only part of the organs necessary to its existence.
To the friends of progress and elevation I propose to write a narrative of real life as a slave and as a citizen. Believing that every person, who regards those that are striving to educate themselves, will give this little book some encouragement when its author presents it to them, and believing that every gentleman and lady will do so, I feel satisfied to submit the following facts of my life when in slavery and now as a freeman.
