Review: Should be required reading in every school! - A must-read for anyone with a soul... but be sure to have a box of tissues handy! This is the totally AMAZING autobiography of Olaudah Equiano (pronounced OH-LA-OO-DAH EH-QUEE-AH-NO), who went from being a free young man in Africa to being a slave to other Africans to being a slave to Whites in the Caribbean and American South, and through his faith, honestly, morality, and love for his fellow man of all races he attained his liberty in Britain and ascended to the social rank of Gentleman. A gut-wrenching, tear-jerking, and ultimately exalting story that takes you from the depths of man's grievous wickedness to the heights of mercy, forgiveness, and victory over tyranny. I strongly believe that this should be required reading in every school.
Review: If you want to know what it’s like being black in the 1700s - This book was an awesome journey into the the mid 1700s. Vassa takes us on a journey from captivity to freedom traveling the Caribbean’s to Savannah. This is a great read for black Americans historically called Negros by the powers of the time. It is a heartfelt account and yet relevant to the human condition that blacks face “till dis day!”

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Interesting Indeed
*by M***K on May 3, 2017*

This reads like a combination of the biography of Frederick Douglass and Forrest Gump. In other words, he floats around accidental-like on a breeze, and suffers mightily wherever he goes and has great adventures. Where didn't he go? And what didn't he see in cruelty? It's almost not quite believable, but the narrative gives off an air of authenticity via his combination of eloquence, assertions of truth and request for fact-checking, and his finding God. Astonishing, truly, and moving.
