Brown was in its fourth edition, having sold over 8,000 copies in less than eighteen months and making it one of the fastest-selling antislavery tracts of its time. The book's popularity can be attributed both to the strong voice of its author and Brown's notoriety as an abolitionist speaker. The son of a slave and a white man, Brown recounts his years in servitude, his cruel masters, and the brutal whippings he and those around him received. He provides a detailed description of his failed attempt to escape with his mother; after their capture, they were sold to new masters. A subsequent escape attempt succeeds. He is taken in by a kind Quaker, Wells Brown, whose name he adopts in gratitude. Shortly thereafter, Brown crosses the Canadian border. Brown's Narrative includes stories of fighting devious slave traders and bounty hunters, various antislavery poems, articles and stories (written by him and others), newspaper clippings, reward posters, and slave sale announcements.Fugitive slavesUnited StatesBiographyAfrican AmericansBiographySlavesMissouriBiographyPlantation lifeMissouriHistory19th centurySlaveryMissouriHistory19th centurySlaves' writings, AmericanMissouriSourcesElectronic books.Fugitive slavesAfrican AmericansSlavesPlantation lifeHistorySlaveryHistorySlaves' writings, American306.3/62092Brown William Wells1814?-1884.603560University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.Documenting the American South (Project)University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.Library.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910457675303321Narrative of William W.

The book presents extraordinary color schemes, both in terms of technology and aesthetics, for ground-breaking architecture with a wide spectrum of functions: from apartment to concert hall, from flagship store to city park.The focus is on the works of the three architects Frank O. Gehry, Jean Nouvel and Wang Shu. This is expanded by the works of other practices such as BIG, Zaha Hadid, Herzog & de Meuron, Toyo Ito and SANAA.This publication presents a compendium that documents color schemes in architecture in the context of very different aesthetic approaches. The large-format photographs by Iwan Baan, Christian Richters, Roland Halbe and Philippe Ruault fascinate with their clarity and presence.Farbe ist unlösbar mit der Architektur verbunden - als Medium der Gestaltung, aber auch als eigene Qualität prägt sie Form und Textur des Gebauten.Das Buch präsentiert Farbgestaltungen avancierter Architektur, die in technologischer wie in ästhetischer Hinsicht außerordentlich sind, für ein breites Spektrum von Bauaufgaben: vom Apartment zur Konzerthalle, vom Flagship Store zum Stadtpark.Im Vordergrund stehen Werke der drei Architekten Frank O.

Erweitert wird das Spektrum durch Arbeiten anderer Büros wie beispielsweise BIG, Zaha Hadid, Herzog & de Meuron, Toyo Ito und SANAA.Mit dieser Darstellung liegt ein Kompendium vor, das Farbgestaltung in der Architektur in sehr unterschiedlichen ästhetischen Auffassungen dokumentiert.
