Uncle Tom's Cabin is an anti-slavery novel written by Harriet Beecher Stowe, published in 1852, that portrays the harsh realities of slavery and its moral implications. The book had a profound impact on American society by igniting anti-slavery sentiment in the North and increasing sectional tensions between the North and South. Its emotional narrative and vivid characters made it a powerful tool for abolitionists, shaping public opinion on slavery and contributing to the failure of compromise between the two regions.
