*I read the actual book, not the study guide... but this is what I could find*

Quite boring, but informational and an overall great book to use for school.

Realistic depiction of a Woman's Slavery

This true and well written biography of a woman slave depicts the harsh realities and constant fear of a slave woman. It is written with much introspection and detail. One can feel the ever present danger of being a slave and the evils it has on the slave owners.
Well worth reading.

It was interesting but I found it hard to read due to to the way the author wrote the book.
