Summary : The Memoir of Old Elizabeth, a Colored Woman, is a story of the life of a former slave that was freed and became a preacher. The memoir was recorded when she was ninety-seven years old. When she was eleven, Elizabeth was sold far away from her family. Then she was brought back home. Later, she was sold twice, the second time to a Presbyterian minister who freed her thirty years old. She started a preaching career, but it was hard for a woman of color to tell other of Christianity. This memoir gives a vivid picture of the fight a black woman had to come through to win a position in the society of those days.

Summary : Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
