Women's voices, women's lives

Women's Voices, Women's Lives offers a wealth of primary sources on women's experiences in colonial America. Carol Berkin and Leslie Horowitz gather together a broad spectrum of documents that crossents race, class, and region, presenting the voices of African American, European, and Native American women, the rich and the poor, and women in the south, the middle colonies, and New England. The editors draw on diaries, letters, essays, court documents, sermons, wills, plantation records, newspapers, fiction, and advice manuals to reconstruct women's lives and roles during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.
