Slave Narrative Blog 1

I have decided to read Isaac Mason’s slave narrative, titled Life of Isaac Mason As a Slave.  I expect to learn more horrifying details about slavery, methods of escaping and everyday life as a slave.  I know that the labor of a slave was gruesome.  Slaves atempted to run away a lot but only sometimes succeeded.  When a slave was caught doing something wrong, such as running away, a slave faced harsh corporal and sometimes capital punishment.  I am very interested to see what the slave narrative has to say.
