By that time, Douglass had earned his freedom, worked for several years, and made an important speech to a white audience.
The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass was so well written that many people doubted whether the writer had really been a slave. And it was so successful that Douglass had to flee to England to avoid being caught by slave hunters who were chasing him in the North. Eventually, several British friends paid Douglass's former master for Douglass's freedom, and Douglass returned to the United States as a legally free man.
In 1860, Douglass worked for the presidential campaign of Abraham Lincoln. During the Civil War that soon followed, Douglass recruited Union soldiers, including black soldiers, for two regiments in Massachusetts.
Douglass went on to publish two updates to his autobiography later in life—one in 1855 (still pre-Civil War) and another in 1881. He published a newspaper, gave lectures, and spoke out for human rights around the world.
