Uncle Tom's Cabin written by Harriet Beecher Stowe was a anti-slavery book that was published in 1852. Stowe was an abolitionist and wrote the book to criticize the practice of slavery and to critique and call for its end in the United States at that time. The book became a best-selling book and sold hundreds of thousands of copies. It infuriated the South because it challenged the narrative of slavery and the suppression of African Americans at the time.
