Dred: A Tale of the Great Dismal Swamp Dred: A Tale of the Great Dismal Swamp is the second popular novel from American author Harriet Beecher Stowe. It was first published in two volumes by Phillips, Sampson and Company in 1856. Although it enjoyed better initial sales than her previous, and more famous, novel "Uncle Tom's Cabin", it was ultimately less popular. "Dred" was of a more documentary nature than "Uncle Tom's Cabin" and thus lacked a character like Uncle Tom to evoke strong emotion from readers.
