——————

Великое счастье миссис Стоу заключается не только в том, что она написала множество восхитительных книг, но и в том, что она создала одну книгу, которая навсегда останется знаменитой не только как самая яркая картина ушедшей зловещей системы, но и как одно из мощнейших средств ее сокрушения. . . . Ни одна книга не была в большей степени историческим событием, чем «Хижина дяди Тома». . . . Если бы все те, кого она очаровала и пробудила, объединились, чтобы воспеть ее хвалу, птицы лета были бы превзойдены. — Джордж Уильям Кертис.

New Popular Edition from new plates. With account of the writing of this story by Mrs. Stowe, and frontispiece. 16mo, $1.00.

Holiday Edition. With an Introduction of more than thirty pages by Mrs. Stowe, describing the circumstances under which the story was written, and a Bibliography of the various editions and languages in which the work has appeared, by George Bullen, of the British Museum.

Публикация этой замечательной повести стала событием как в американской истории, так и в американской литературе. Она приковала взоры нации и цивилизованного мира к язвам рабства, представив их столь живо и мощно, что сердце и совесть человечества с тех пор ополчились против них. Но, помимо своего живописания рабства, «Хижина дяди Тома» — это повесть захватывающей силы, изобилующая юмористическими зарисовками характеров негров и янки. Ее необычайный ежегодный тираж в тысячи экземпляров и перевод на многочисленные иностранные языки свидетельствуют о ее универсальном и непреходящем интересе.
