Halfway between sermon and social theory: the mania for "Tom mania" -- "There is no arguing with pictures": the Aiken/Howard Uncle Tom's cabin -- "A play to which no apologist for slavery could object": the Conway/Kimball/Barnum Uncle Tom's cabin -- "O' it was a sight worth seeing": Uncle Tom hits the road -- Long live Uncle Tom! Uncle Tom's cabin in the twentieth century -- Uncle Tom in middle age: from a stage tradition to the silver screen -- Epilogue: the story that won't stay dead.

"No play in the history of the American stage has been as ubiquitous and as widely viewed as Uncle Tom's Cabin. This booktraces the major dramatizations of Harriet Beecher Stowe's classic from its inception in 1852 through 'modern' versions on film. Frick examines the major productions, companies, and influential persons in the long, complex history of theatrical Toms, providing a broad overview of what has been labeled the 'Uncle Tom phenomenon.' Unlike previous studies about Uncle Tom's Cabin, Frick introduces the reader to the artists who created the plays and productions that created theatre history"--Provided by publisher.
