Harriet Beecher Stowe(1811 - 1896)
Harriet Beecher Stowe was bom in the State of Connecticut in the North of the USA in the family of a poor clergyman The Beechers were a large and hard working family Harriet Beecher began to teach in a school for girls when she was thirteen She helped her elder sister Catherine Beecher, who had opened the school.
At that time family lived in a small town on the Ohio River. The town was situated not far from that part of the South where the life of slaves was especially hard. Slaves often ran away from their masters and went to Canada On their way to freedom they passed the town where the Beechers lived Harriet heard stories of the slave-markets, of broken Negro families, of the cruelties of masters.
In 1836 she married Calvin Stowe, a professor of theology They were not rich and Harriet had much work to do in the house, as well as looking after her children. She had four sons and three daughters When she had time, she attended a literary club and tried to write short stories. Some of the stories were printed in newspapers. In 1843 her best stories were published in the book “Mayflowers”
Progressive people in the USA were against slavery, and Harriet’s father organized an antislavery society, the members of which wanted to put an end to slavery They opened school for Negro children Harriet was an active member of the society She knew the conditions of life on the plantations and wrote articles for the newspapers published by the society Slave
owners often killed Newoes who fought against exploitation and burnt down their houses and villages Harriet Beecher Stowe wrote a short story about the death of an old Negro named Uncle Tom The story was published and was a great success with the readers The author was asked to continue the story and she wrote a whole novel describing the life of Uncle Tom and his family. In 1852 the novel “Uncle Tom's Cabin” was published The book had a great influence on anli-slaverv movement
Revolutionary democrats in Russia used the novel in their struggle against the Russian landowners In 1858 Sovremennik, a progressive magazine, published a Russian translation of "Uncle Tom’s Cabin"
Some American critics attacked the book sayinR that the facts in the novels were not true. H.Beecher Stowe then published another book, “Key to Uncle Tom’s Cabin" (1853). It was a collection of the documents used in her novel.
H.Beecher Stowe’s next anti-slavery novel was “Dred: A Tale of the Great Dismal Swamp” (1856), which tells about an uprising of slaves

Well, I’ll take your Tom if you add a boy or a girl to him, - answered Haley
I don’t think I have a boy or a girl that I could sell. If 1 could pay the money back I wouldn’t sell the slaves at all.
Here the door opened and a small Negro boy, between four and fives years of age, entered the room. Mr Shelby gave him some fruit and said, “Now, Harry, show this gentleman how you can dance and sing The boy began to sing one of the most popular Negro songs in a clear voice.
Bravo!- said Haley, throwing the boy a piece of an orange
Now, boy, walk like an old man1 - said Mr. Shelby. The boy began walking about the room, his master’s stick in his hand, in imitation of an old man
