Uncle Tom's Cabin
by
Harriet Beecher Stowe, Jean Fagan Yellin

A classic that we've all heard of, but that I'd never read (nor, it turns out, had most of my family and friends). Recently reading it for the first time, I was amazed at the powerful writing and description of the times, as well as the slightly different perspective the reading gave me on "Uncle Tom". The prose is dense, obviously from a different century, but well worth the work to appreciate how this book contributed to the abolition movement and helped launch the civil war.

Beautifully written with both humor and wonderful emotional insight. I'm in the over-50 crowd, but would recommend this for all ages.
