"The Freedmen's Book" by Lydia Maria Child is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. The volume aims to document the achievements of African Americans in a time of oppression and is dedicated to the freedmen, encouraging them to find strength and courage in their history. The work includes biographies, poems, and narratives that highlight the struggles and triumphs of notable black figures.
