Description:
"Our Nig is the tale of a mixed-race girl, Frado, abandoned by her white mother after the death of the child's black father. Frado becomes the servant of the Bellmonts, a lower-middle-class white family in the free North, while slavery is still legal in the South, and suffers numerous abuses in their household. Frado's story is a tragic one; having left the Bellmonts, she eventually marries a black fugitive slave, who later abandons her" (GoodReads.com).
Published in 1859, this book is considered to be one of the first books written by an African American woman to be published in the United States (Wikipedia). Born in Milton, Harriet E. Wilson was also a native New Hampshirite (Wikipedia).

Books on Display in January
Stop by Geisel Library to view two book displays, available through January 31, 2025.
You are also welcome to borrow any materials that are on display.
The Presidency and the White House
Every four years, including this year, the Inauguration of the President of the United States occurs at 12 Noon (Eastern Time) on January 20th. On display are items from Geisel's collection that pertain to the U.S. Presidency and to the White House, the Official Residence and Office of the President of the United States. Additional texts are housed at the New Hampshire Institute of Politics.
Pope Benedict XVI
An intellectual giant of our era, Pope Benedict XVI wrote prolifically both before and during his Pontificate. At Geisel Library, we are fortunate to possess numerous works written both by and about him. We hope you enjoy our display honoring this teacher and pastor.
