Best Answer

Frederick Douglass wanted to go to Baltimore because he had the opportunity to learn a trade as a ship caulker, which would provide him with more freedom and autonomy than being a field slave. Despite the harsh conditions he faced in the city, he saw it as a chance to improve his circumstances and work towards gaining his freedom.
