- Synopsis
- Originally published in 1898, this is a classic work on life in colonial America. Earle, a noted social historian of her day, conducted extensive research into the folkways of the colonists, with special emphasis on colonial New England. She writes with warmth, enthusiasm, and understated humor, drawing frequently on letters and diaries of the time. Chapters cover weaving and spinning (described in detail), transportation, housing, hunting and fishing, social customs, flower gardens, and much more.
