Possibly the first novel written by a black woman slave, this work is both a historically important literary event and a gripping autobiographical story in its own right. When her master is betrothed to a woman who conceals a tragic secret, Hannah Crafts, a young slave on a wealthy North Carolina plantation, runs away in a bid for her freedom up North. Pursued by slave hunters, imprisoned by a mysterious and cruel captor, held by sympathetic strangers, and forced to serve a demanding new mistress, she finally makes her way to freedom in New Jersey. Her compelling story provides a fascinating view of American life in the mid-1800s and the literary conventions of the time. Written in the 1850's by a runaway slave, THE BONDSWOMAN'S NARRATIVE is a provocative literary landmark and a significant historical event that will captivate a diverse audience.

The Slave Bible was published in 1807. It was commissioned on behalf of the Society for the Conversion of Negro Slaves in England. The Bible was to be used by missionaries and slave owners to teach slaves about the Christian faith and to evangelize slaves. The Bible was used to teach some slaves to read, but the goal first and foremost was to tend to the spiritual needs of the slaves in the way the missionaries and slave owners saw fit.

In this book Elijah T Sog is given rare deep insight into the subject matter of sin from God's perspective, as you dig into this book you will find that Christ already condemned sin and has given the power to put sin in subjection to all his children. You will find out that the issue of Sin is not one of the issues of life but the issue of life, it is your victory over sin that determines your placement in this life and the life to come, and as the Spirit of God pours out His heart you will get answers. If you ever want to be free from sin and stay free then read this book and study it and meditate on the content and you will find the truth in it will set you free. Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. 1 John 3:9 It is clear that in this physical life many people have struggled with this statement and the most difficult part is where God says "cannot sin"; this book will explain all that to you. John says if you are born of God, and God's seed remains in you and the Word is the seed, you can't sin, this is the summary of the content of this book, that God has made all provisions for you not to sin and this book reveals where the provisions are and how to use them, so that 1 John 3:9 may be fulfilled in your life. To live in sin is to serve sin and no man can serve two masters, this book is the manual on victory over sin and his works.

Henry T. Mahan, began his ministry at the young age of 21 and has wide experience in the pastoral ministry, his writings, and as a Bible Conference speaker. He pastored Thirteenth Street Baptist Church, Ashland, Kentucky, for fifty years, and today he lives in Rocky Mount, Virginia. Publishing a weekly bulletin over those fifty years, he shared them by mail with other pastors, churches, and believers around the country. In his writing, Pastor Mahan continually points sinners to look to Christ for all of salvation, and they are full of strong and vital instructions from the word of the LordÑconstantly declaring that salvation is of the Lord. We are excited, and thankful for the opportunity, to put these bulletin articles from 1979-1987 into book format for distribution. It is our prayer the Lord will bless these short articles to the furtherance of the gospel, to the comfort of the believer, and to the glory of the Lord Jesus Christ.
