"Little has produced a fascinating biography of an extraordinary woman. . . . A must-read."-- Library Journal , starred review "The story of Wheelwright is unique in its details, but ends up telling a larger story about the lives of women in the region, as well as religion, warfare, status, human nature and rivalry on a local and world stage. This is a book that deserves a permanent place on any bookshelf dedicated to the history of Maine."-- Portland Press Herald "Little manages to weave together the smallest details of everyday life into a broad, colorful tapestry that rescues Esther from historical obscurity and places her as a woman among other women within her wider colonial North American context. Little''s accomplishment is to be both lauded and emulated."--Colleen Gray, William and Mary Quarterly "It is time to take the opposite approach--to transform genre in light of our broadening understanding of gendered dynamics in early American history. If indeed such a methodological revolt takes place, no small thanks will be due to Ann Little''s The Many Captivities of Esther Wheelwright ."--Christopher Hodson, New England Quarterly " The Many Captivities of Esther Wheelwright is an excellent choice for students of early American history and a compelling read for all lovers of history."--Kelly A. Ryan, Journal of American History "Well worth reading. . . . The Many Captivities of Esther Wheelwright is well-written, well-researched--an important book that will appeal to scholars."--Vivian Bruce Conger, Early Modern Women Ann M. Little, Associate Professor of History at Colorado State University, has been selected as the winner of the 2018 Albert B. Corey Prize for the The Many Captivities of Esther Wheelwright (Yale Univ. Press, 2016). The Corey Prize is awarded biennially by the American Historical Association (AHA) in recognition of the best book on Canadian-American relations or on the history of both countries. "In Little''s hands, Wheelwright becomes a vehicle for discussions of any number of subjects, from comparative imperialism to gender, authority and aging in colonial North America. The biographical lens makes it possible to convey important but comparatively abstract historiographical analysis through tangible life experiences."--Marla R. Miller, author of Betsy Ross and the Making of America "An utterly absorbing, brilliantly told analysis of a singular life. Little offers us a fresh way to think about early America by foregrounding a female subject and a rich body of primary sources produced by women, and by challenging our gendered notions of appropriate biographical subjects."--Sophie White, author of Wild Frenchmen and Frenchified Indians: Material Culture and Race in Colonial Louisiana "Esther Wheelwright''s journey--from Puritan girl, to Wabanaki captive, to mother superior of the largest Catholic convent in French Canada--is one of the most fascinating personal stories in the annals of what we call ''colonial history.'' And now, as recounted by Ann Little, it offers something more. Deeply researched, and wonderfully contextualized, The Many Captivities of Esther Wheelwright opens a wide window on three major cultural venues, whose interplay defined and shaped a whole era."--John Demos, author of The Unredeemed Captive: A Family Story from Early America "Ann Little has produced a stunning biography. From fragments she has woven a compelling tapestry, restoring the life of an eighteenth-century North American woman with depth and sensitivity, not only to her subject but to the ways of recreating past lives."--Peter C. Mancall, author of Fatal Journey: The Final Expedition of Henry Hudson--A Tale of Mutiny and Murder in the Arctic, "Little has produced a fascinating biography of an extraordinary woman. . . .

Synopsis
An eye-opening biography of a woman whose life intersected with three distinct cultures in eighteenth-century America: colonial New England, French Canadian, and Native American "Esther Wheelwright's journey--from Puritan girl, to Wabanaki captive, to mother superior of the largest Catholic convent in French Canada--is one of the most fascinating personal stories in the annals of what we call 'colonial history.' Deeply researched, and wonderfully contextualized . . . [this book] opens a wide window on three major cultural venues, whose interplay defined and shaped a whole era."--John Demos, author of The Unredeemed Captive: A Family Story from Early America Born and raised in a New England garrison town, Esther Wheelwright (1696-1780) was captured by Wabanaki Indians at age seven. Among them, she became a Catholic and lived like any other young girl in the tribe. At age twelve, she was enrolled at a French-Canadian Ursuline convent, where she would spend the rest of her life, eventually becoming the order's only foreign-born mother superior. Among these three major cultures of colonial North America, Wheelwright's life was exceptional: border-crossing, multilingual, and multicultural. This meticulously researched book discovers her life through the communities of girls and women around her: the free and enslaved women who raised her in Wells, Maine; the Wabanaki women who cared for her, catechized her, and taught her to work as an Indian girl; the French-Canadian and Native girls who were her classmates in the Ursuline school; and the Ursuline nuns who led her to a religious life., An eye-opening biography of a woman at the intersection of three distinct cultures in colonial America Born and raised in a New England garrison town, Esther Wheelwright (1696-1780) was captured by Wabanaki Indians at age seven.

- m***a (261)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufThe book was in exactly the condition described in the listing. I generally don’t buy books that only have one photo.It was shipped quickly. The book arrived via Amazon box truck and was in Amazon packaging, so I assume this seller also lists books on Amazon. I wish I had known this as I am trying to not shop Amazon. I just think other buyers might want to know this. Still, the book was packed with care in a bubble envelope. Shipping costs were reasonable, but there was no tracking available.The Anne of Green Gables Cookbook by Macdonald (Nr. 187076052775)
- l***l (648)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufThis item was reported mailed within 3 days of order. However, I did not receive it. I waited 4 days past expected delivery date before notifying seller. Seller reported that the item must have been list in the mail, and I received an apology and a refund the next day. Disappointed in but receiving the book, but I would definitely purchase from this seller againEtched in Stone: Archeological Discoveries that Prove the Bible by Bassett-Brody (Nr. 388177289478)
