Uncle Tom's Cabin; or, Life Among the Lowly is an anti-slavery novel by American author Harriet Beecher Stowe. Published in 1852.
Uncle Tom's Cabin tells the story of Uncle Tom, depicted as a saintly, dignified slave. He makes plans to do so but is then killed, and the brutal Simon Legree, Tom's new owner, has Tom whipped to death after he refuses to divulge the whereabouts of certain runaway slaves.
His novel brought insight to the lives of slaves in 1852 but it's unfortunate that because of the Rich men, the novel was banned as it talks about anti-slavery.
