© 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. This poster advertises Uncle Tom’s Cabin, the bestselling novel by Harriet Beecher Stowe. This poignant story of long-suffering African American slaves had an immense impact on northern popular opinion, swaying it decisively against slavery. In that respect, the poster’s boast, “The Greatest Book of the Age,” was correct. © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc.
