Frederick Douglass the orator : Containing an account of his life; his eminent public services; his brilliant career as orator; selections from his speeches and writings
A late nineteenth-century biography of the abolitionist orator Frederick Douglass, written by James Monroe Gregory and published in Springfield, Massachusetts, in 1893 for general readers interested in his life and speeches. The pictures are sepia halftone studio portraits of men in suits and bow ties, shot against plain or painted backdrops, with one full-length figure holding a top hat, offering a designer soft period studio lighting and formal Victorian portrait poses.
