Harriet Beecher Stowe (1811-1896) was an American author and abolitionist, and a member of the Beecher family. Uncle Tom's Cabin (1852) set out the harsh conditions of enslaved African Americans, reached millions as both novel and play, energised anti-slavery opinion in the American North and provoked anger in the South. Stowe wrote more than 30 books, among them novels, three travel memoirs, and collections of articles and letters. The catalogue lists 70 items from 1852 to 2019, including Key to Uncle Tom's Cabin (1853), Sunny Memories in Foreign Lands (1854), Dred; A Tale of the Great Dismal Swamp (1855) and The Minister's Wooing (1859). Slavery, African Americans and American social life run through the subjects.
