Harriet Beecher Stowe was the author of Uncle Tom's Cabin. Stowe was an abolitionist with good writing skills. Her feelings against slavery led her to create a novel that would expose the evils of slavery. The book first appeared in serial form in the National Era. This was a Washington DC based anti-slavery newspaper with a national readership. Her serials first appeared in June of 1851. Stowe had been doing research on the conditions of slavery for the better part of her adult life. The novel was a personal story and was well written. She was able to reach a wide audience that in the North had really no contact or a particular interest in slavery. The book was about family, God and redemption. In the middle of 19th century America, this type of story attracted a broad audience. It was an unusual piece of work that began to take shape as she attended church in 1851. There she experienced a vision. It was a white man beating to death an old male slave. Tom was the slave in her vision and the book took on the form of a retelling of the crucifixion in family terms.An important point about the book was that it was not anti-southern. Stowe believed the blame for the institution of slavery, in 1851 was the fault of the entire nation. What set Stowe's book apart to many other pieces of anti-slavery literature of the times, was that it relentlessly criticized the North for not taking a stand, an active role in ending what was an abomination on the United States. The book became a national best seller and no doubt influenced both abolitionists and the regular citizens of the time.
