Chapter 1: The author depicts the relationships between slaves and their masters in Kentucky. Outside characters like the slave trader help the reader identify with the economic and social issues that inundate slavery and southern living.
Chapter 2:. As depicted in chapter two, slaves are not permitted to marry, and some masters even prohibit their slaves from succeeding in factories to force them to “know their place.” Slaves who are treated poorly by their masters often lose their faith and struggle to find meaning in life.
Chapter 3: Some slaves lose their faith in what they call “the cruel world they live in” because their masters deprive them of basic respect, rights (like marriage), and happiness. This causes slaves to risk escaping …show more content…
The escaped slaves simply want to be free from the country they find corrupt and, sometimes feel, are not a part of and in turn feel that Canada is the only place within reach of being suitable for them.
Chapter 12: The Slave trade is seen in many different ways, but the arguments are most commonly debating the ideas of the slave trade separating families, the morality of humans participating in the slave trade, and the morality in alignment with the Christian faith of many slave traders.

The author is persuading the audience to relate and support a young christian girl preaching morality than a petty woman who preaches brutality and claims blacks are not even fit to be called human.
