A Narrative of the Life and Adventures of Venture: A Native of Africa, But Resident Above Sixty Years in the United States of America. Related by Hims - Paperback

by Venture Smith (Author), H. M. Selden (Editor)

THE following account of the life of VENTURE is a relation of simple facts, in which nothing is added in substance to what he related himself. Many other interesting and curious passages of his life might have been inserted, but on account of the bulk to which they must necessarily have swelled this narrative, they were omitted. If any should suspect the truth of what is here related, they are referred to people now living who are acquainted with most of the facts mentioned in the narrative.
