The verdict
Three African-American Classics
GOOD PRICE.
This is a single book that collects three major autobiographical and essay works by African-American writers from the 1800s and early 1900s: Frederick Douglass's account of his life as an enslaved person, Booker T. Washington's story of building his life after slavery, and W. E. B. Du Bois's essays on Black identity and experience in America. It's for anyone wanting to read foundational texts about slavery, freedom, and the struggle for equality all in one place.

The read
What's actually worth knowing.
- You get three substantial historical works together instead of buying them separately, which makes it convenient for reading or studying these texts as a group.
- These are dense, serious writings from the 1800s and early 1900s, so they require engaged reading rather than being quick or light.
- The book is a standard paperback size at about 5 by 8 inches, making it portable but not pocket-sized.
As of Aug 31, the Three African-American Classics is a good price at $11.13 — versus a $10.66 typical price and a $6.04 12-month low, based on Amazon's own price history.
