{"product_id":"2940149840342","title":"Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave","description":"\"In coming to a fixed determination to run away,\" writes Frederick Douglass, \"we did more than Patrick Henry, when he resolved upon liberty or death. With us it was a doubtful liberty at most, and almost certain death if we failed. For my part, I should prefer death to hopeless bondage.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn 1838, Douglass escaped from slavery and went to New York City. His memoir was published in 1845 and had a nationwide influence on the ending of slavery in the United States. He was a champion of individual rights, property rights, and liberty in general. His memoir is rightly seen as one of the great documents in the history of freedom.","brand":"Laissez Faire Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47112161067248,"sku":"2940149840342","price":9.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940149840342_p0.jpg?v=1763724561","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940149840342","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
