"Thirty Years of Slavery: From Shackles to Freedom. The Institution of Slavery Through the Eyes of Louis Hughes on a Plantation and in a Planter's Home" is an impressive autobiography of the African-American writer Louis Hughes, who, having lived through more than three decades of slavery, shared his thoughts, experiences and memories about this terrible period in human history. In his book, he reveals the details of the brutal living conditions of the slaves, describes the power of the planters over the people, and sheds light on the images of slavery, only as if he himself was present on the plantations and in the home of the planters. This book has become an important document in the history of the struggle for equal rights and against slavery, and is also extremely important for understanding the dark side of human nature."
