Harriet Beecher Stowe (1811-1896) published the novel “Uncle Tom’s Cabin” in 1852. In it, she personalized the horrors of slavery through the lives of its characters in order to persuade readers to take a strong stand against slavery. The book had such a powerful impact on people’s thoughts and feelings on the issue that legend states President Lincoln greeted her at the White House in 1861 saying: “So you’re the little woman who stated this Great War!”
