Still in his twenties but already famous for his fiery orations and controversial autobiography, black abolitionist Frederick Douglass traveled to Great Britain in 1845 on an eighteenmonth lecture and fundraising tour. This book examines how that visit affected transatlantic reform movements and Douglasss own thinking. The first book dedicated specifically to the trip, it features the work of scholars from both sides of the Atlanticincluding Douglass biographer William McFeely and abolitionist scholar R. J. M. Blackettwho use Douglasss visit to reexamine aspects of his life and times. The contributors reveal the visits significance to an understanding of transatlantic gender relations, religion, radicalism, and popular views of African Americans in Britain and also examine such topics as Douglasss attitudes toward the Irish and his campaign against the Free Church of Scotland for accepting southern money. Together, these essays show that Douglasss journey was a personal and political triumph and a key event in his development, leaving him better prepared to set the strategies and ideologies of the abolitionist movement.
