Monique Bautista · Answer 1

chronological order

Explanation:

It is a very summarized telling of Frederick Douglass' story, but it does start with he being born and states many other things in an order that obeys the sequence of events that happened in his life (escaping, becoming a writer, writing a memoir and so on). Considering this, we can assume that it is in chronological order.

Chain · Answer 2

Chronological order. It's listing events in the order they happened.
