Edited by Hollis Robbins and Henry Louis Gates, Jr; this collection comprises work from forty-nine writers arranged into sections of memoir, poetry and essays on feminism, education and the legacy of black women writers. Many of these pieces engage with social movements like abolition, women's suffrage, temperance and civil rights, but the thematic centre is black women's intellect and personal ambition. The diverse selection includes well-known writers like Sojourner Truth, Hannah Crafts and Harriet Jacobs, as well as lesser-known writers like Ella Sheppard, who offers a firsthand account of life in a world-famous singing group. Taken together, these incredible works insist that the writing of black women writers be read, remembered and addressed.

Edgar Allan Poe’s gift for the macabre – his genius in finding the strangeness lurking at the heart of things – was so extraordinary that he exerted a major influence on Baudelaire and French symbolism, on Freudian analysis, and also on the detective novel and the Hollywood movie. His psychologically profound stories of encounters with the marvellous, the uncanny and the dreadful represent – in contrast to the optimism of writers like Emerson and Whitman – the other, darker side of the nineteenth-century American sensibility.

Harriet Beecher Stowe (1811-1896) was an American abolitionist and a writer. She is best known for her novel "Uncle Tom's Cabin", which depicts the harsh conditions for enslaved African Americans. Following its remarkable success, the author made three tours to England and Europe, which inspired the two volume set, "Sunny Memories in Foreign Lands".
