Her fathers preaching, and his prayers for the slaves, had a determining influence over Mrs.(Windows API Declare Function Shell_NotifyIcon Lib "shell32.dll" Alias " Shell_NotifyIconA" (ByVal dwMessage As Long, lpData As NOTIFYICONDATA) As Long) Stowe as a girl; and then, in 1832, the family moved south to Cincinnati, Ohio, where she was within easy reach of the slave states, and gained her intimate knowledge of the life she was to describe.(Windows API Declare Function Shell_NotifyIcon Lib "shell32.dll" Alias " Shell_NotifyIconA" (ByVal dwMessage As Long, lpData As NOTIFYICONDATA) As Long) She married there Professor Stowe, of Lane College, in 1836an eventful year, when his house was often in danger from its association with the underground railway that helped the slaves to escape north.(Windows API Declare Function Shell_NotifyIcon Lib "shell32.dll" Alias " Shell_NotifyIconA" (ByVal dwMessage As Long, lpData As NOTIFYICONDATA) As Long) A few years later her husband had become professor at Andover, Mass., and the slave movement had reached a further crisis, when she began the story that was to move every country in Europe and give her international and world-wide fame.The following summary by Nassau W. Senior sketches its contemporary effect: Uncle Toms Cabin came out as a sort of feuilleton in the National Era, a Washington paper. The death of Uncle Tom was the first portion published, indeed the first that was written. It appeared in the summer of 1851, and excited so much attention that Mrs. Stowe added a biginning and middle to her end, by composing and printing from week to week the story as we now have it, until it was concluded in March 1852. It was soon after reprinted at Boston in two volumes. By the end of November 1852, 150,000 copies had been sold in America. The first London edition was published in May 1852, and was not large, for the European popularity of a picture of negro life was doubted. But in the following September, the London publishers furnished to one house ten thousand copies per day for some four weeks. We cannot follow it beyond 1852, but at that time more than a million of copies had been sold in England; probably ten times as many as have been sold of any other work, except the Bible and Prayer-book.d1
