About the book
In the mid-1800s, a turbulent time when women were often thought to be unworthy of higher education, Maria Mitchell rose above the prejudices of the day to become America's first professional woman astronomer. This exciting biography tells the story of Maria Mitchell's life, her amazing achievements, and her faith that saw God's handiwork in the heavens. - Back cover.
First sentence: On August 1, 1818, in the "birthing room" off the kitchen of a gray-shingled house in Nantucket, a baby girl was born to William and Lydia Mitchell.
