Publisher Description
In putting this little volume before the public, it is well, perhaps, that I should speak of my motive.
Born and reared in slavery, I was, of course, deprived of education; and believing that I can be of service to the public in the ministry, I have published this account of my life and sufferings, with the hope that I might realize a sufficient sum from its sale, to enable me to procure a greater degree of education, thereby increasing my usefulness as a preacher.
With this simple statement I present myself to the humane, in the hope that I may not appeal in vain.
LEONARD BLACK.
April, 1847.
