OverviewFrom a contemporary perspective, Frederick Douglass was the Martin Luther King, Jr. of the nineteenth century. This volume relates the development of the Douglass Family in bondage and in freedom. In many areas, new evidence is unearthed. Some prior findings, traditions, presumptions, and myths are examined and challenged. The net result is a family biography which constitutes an invaluable addition to prior studies relating to a true giant of American history. The author's interest in the family of Douglass was triggered decades ago when he learned about a slave ancestral connection to Frederick Douglass. The saga of his grandfather's family was narrated in an award-winning family history published privately. During the period of his extensive research, he has published several papers regarding the Frederick Douglass Family in bondage. Joseph L. Douglas Jr. earned a BA in history from American University and his professional degree (MPA) at Harvard University.
