<p>Hey guys</p>

<p>For our schools summer reading assignment for AP lang and comp,
“Narratives of Frederick Douglass” is on the list.</p>

<p>I bought a book called “Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass”, and is it the same thing as the summer requirement.</p>

<p>Im wondering if the book I bought is only one narrative of a collection in “the narratives of frederick douglass”, or are they both the same thing. This is strange cause theyre wordered differently.</p>

<p>Thanks for the help guys.</p>

<p>There are many books with the names of Narrative of Frederick Douglass. Did they give an author or publisher?</p>

<p>They are all similar, but differ a very small way.</p>

<p>Narratives of Frederick Douglass is written by Frederick Douglass, it’s just different publishers. and little changes.</p>

<p>Just email your teacher and ask, just to be sure. That might have been what she meant</p>

<p>if ur talking about “narrative of life of FD”…WORST BOOK EVER</p>

<p>i had to read it last year for english…its HORRIBLE and boring</p>

<p>sorry to be discouraging but i hated it…and thus got behind in reading lol so i ultimately had to sparknotes it the day b4 my test on it…lol just cuz it took me like 10 mins to read like 2 pages cuz i kept getting sidetracked</p>

<p>I really liked it.</p>

<p>there are three different volumes of autobiography, but only the first one is widely read because it concerns his time as a slave which really wasn’t done by any other escaped slaves</p>

<p>Do you have the ISBN number?</p>

<p>It is sad you dismiss a book yall have to much to learn from as ‘boring’.</p>

<p>What if I dismissed most of American History as 'boring, you’d get personally offended as well…****, the most all of you know about black culture and history is probably BET. Its a shame.</p>

<p>I also have that summer assignment for AP English Lang & Comp</p>

<p>haven’t read the book yet but it seems interesting…i mean when does a slave teach himself how to read and write, then escape and be able to write his own autobiography? that sounds fascinating.</p>

<p>Thanks guys I guess i should email the english department at my school to be sure.</p>

<p>There was no ISBN number given, just “Narratives of Frederick Douglass”, Douglass.</p>
