  • Notes 
    • Harriet was an American abolitionist and author. Her novelUncle Tom's Cabin (1852) depicted life for African-Americans under slavery. It reached millions as a novel and play, and became influential in the U.S. and Britain and made the political issues of the 1850s regarding slavery tangible to millions, energizing anti-slavery forces in the American North, while provoking widespread anger in the South. Upon meeting Harriet, Abraham Lincoln allegedly remarked, "so you're the little lady who started this great war!" [2]
