By personalizing the experiences of American slaves, Uncle Tom's Cabin had a profound effect on public attitudes toward slavery on the eve of the US Civil War, but Stowe's narrative was not the whole story. Jo-Ann Morgan now reveals how prints and paintings of Uncle Tom and other characters in the novel shaped public perceptions and how this visual culture had its own impact on history.
