The Narrative of the Life of Henry "Box" Brown
Newman
In 1849, Henry Brown escaped from slavery by shipping himself in a crate from Virginia to an anti-slavery office in Philadelphia. Twenty seven hours and three hundred and fifty miles later, Brwon stepped out of his box to begin a new life. This is the memoir, originally published in 1851 in England, as fresh and compelling today as ot was one hundred and fifty years ago.
