My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Librivox audiobook: Adventure narrative comparable to Homer's Odyssey. A celebration of youth and adventure. Also a humorous and at times damning testimony of the slavery system. Interesting use of a child's perspective to show the humanity of a slave and the choice of having eternal damnation as opposed to sending a runaway slave back into bondage. A classic of American literature for all students to read
