Abigail Adams: A Writing Life

normal price: R 8,238.95

| book description |

In this book, Edith B. Gelles asserts that Abigail Adams' vivid, insightful letters are ""the best account that exists from the pre to the post-Revolutionary period in America of a woman's life and world."" Adams' spontaneous, witty letters serve dual purposes for the modern reader: it provides an intriguing first hand account of pivotal historical events and it shows how these events from the Boston Tea Party to the War of 1812 entered the private sphere. Included in the book is a chronology, notes and reference section and a selected bibliography. This book will be a must for all scholars of American literature, history and politics seeking to understand this literary figure.
