Harriet Beecher Stowe : : Dred: A Tale of the Great Dismal Swamp / / Judie Newman.
Stowe's second anti-slavery novel is a primary text for students of literature and history - less well-known but now more pertinent than Uncle Tom's Cabin. This vigorous and compulsive read combines thought-provoking themes, rich characterisation, satire and sentiment.
