'''Harriet Beecher Stowe''' was an abolitionist and writer, best known for ''Uncle Tom's Cabin'', one of the most influential books in US history. (Abraham Lincoln reportedly said to Stowe when he met her: "So you're the little lady who wrote the book that started this great war.") As did many women writers on the 19th and 20th centuries, she adopted a masculine pseudonym ("Christopher Crowfield") for some of her writings.

Today, ''Uncle Tom's Cabin'' is critiqued for its patronizing attitudes and use of stereotypes. "Uncle Tom" has become a derogatory term used to describe African-Americans who are loyal and submissive in the face of racism. "Simon Legree", a slave owner, has become synonymous with viciousness and greed.
