Living in a border city and listening to the stories told by her formerly enslaved neighbors, enabled Harriet Beecher Stowe to write the wildly popular antislavery novel, Uncle Tom’s Cabin. Through this tour experience, you will visit the Harriet Beecher Stowe House and learn about its unique two time-period interpretation. You will also embark on a walking tour of the surrounding neighborhood to expand on a discussion of its Abolitionist and African American heritage. You will learn about recent exhibits that feature an oral history component, and discover ways that the Harriet Beecher Stowe House and the Walnut Hills Historical Society are working towards preserving and enhancing those stories.
