Anthony in ending slavery and shaping U.S. democracy itself.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut in this singular work of historical fiction, Sidney Morrison is able to move beyond the legend to explore the full complexity of Douglass's interior life: the loves he protected, the choices he made, the costs paid for his greatness. Anna Murray Douglass, the wife instrumental to his escape. Julia Griffith, the British abolitionist whose closeness sparked scandal. Ottilie Assing, the German journalist who died by suicide after Douglass married another woman. Here is Douglass as history has never quite shown him: a towering public figure and a deeply complex private man, whose life was rich in conflict, consequence, and humanity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSIDNEY MORRISON\u003c\/b\u003e lives in Los Angeles with his wife, Karan.
