I had seen a program on PBS about slavery and the beginning of the Civil war and one of the people focused on was Frederick Douglass and it got me interested.  Even though this was written in this period of time I found it quick and easy reading. So many book of this time are in a language that is hard to understand, this is plain english.I am looking forward to reading his other books one day.
