He was a skilled orator and very articulate.His autobiography was one of the best books I have ever read. He never thought of himself as a slave. I have read other biographies of slaves and they believed that they were slaves but he never did. When his first wife died, he married his white secretary. He was also the first black man to go to the White House invited and admired greatly by his friend Abraham Lincoln. I think the thing I admire most about him was he always believed that he was equal. His autobiography was one of the best books that I have read .Definitely the best autobiography. An amazing man.
