Book of the Month - Uncle Tom's Cabin

 

Every month I will be featuring a book I've read.  This month's feature is another classic published by Reader's Digest, Uncle Tom's Cabin.

This book, written by Harriet Beecher Stowe and published in 1852, vividly dramatized slavery in the US South and gained popularity amoung readers in the North.

Abraham Lincoln is reported to have said that this book was a catalyst to the Civil War.
