The slave narrative is a literary genre involving the autobiographical accounts of enslaved Africans. A slave narrative gives an account of the life, or a portion of the life, of a fugitive or former slave. It could be written or orally related by the slave personally. More than 6,000 such narratives are estimated to exist; the overwhelming majority of American slave narratives were authored by African Americans.

Educational
The narrator was spectacular. The content was a necessary development in my own development as an African American female. For many years I have followed the prescribed teaching of the primary, secondary and higher institutions of learning. Now I am beginning to educate myself concerning the parallel history of my own racial heritage in America. A history not separate but is also a part of American History.

I wish it was authentic
I have taken the advice of others who have reviewed this recording and downloaded some of the individual narratives from LibriVox … not only is the quality SOOO much better but it is actually authentic !! This is edited for content ! I thought it was skipping or glitched but after listening to two entire narratives in here and two of the exact same there, this is edited and cut ! Dont waste time with the auto tuned voice reading this… move on to LibriVox ( oh, and it’s free there!)

Is this read by a robot?
I thought this was a good deal, but it’s a horrible deal because it’s unlistenable. Cannot even listen to it— it sounds like it has been recorded by a robot/natural voice reader. I’m not convinced that it hasn’t, either. Better to download each of these books individually from LibriVox for free.

Many, many incredible stories.
Many of these stories I knew nothing about, and quite a few are incredible. Much of the violence gets downplayed, but it's palpably there in the background as a constant threat.
Life in the 1800's is also described in detail, so I learned quite a bit about methods for collecting salt and fish.
"The entire ... the entire affair." This sort of repetition happens frequently in the affair, obviously intended to be edited out, but that audio editing was not done. However, the narrators did such a good job on such great stories that I can overlook it. I kept giving up on other books with duller stories to come back to this collection. I already plan to listen to it again. Still, an an audio editing pass would improve this.
Highly recommended. From my large Audible library, this is easily in the top ten. I would also recommend U S Grant's autobiography from the same time frame.
