A propos de cet article

Octavo, orange cloth (hardcover), gilt lettering, illustrated endpapers, uncut, xvi, 308 pp. Very Good, with lightly rubbed edges and slight sunning to spine; in a torn, mylar protected dust jacket. From dust jacket: In this rich book of antiquarian reminiscences, Mrs. Rawson, well-known authority on the life and scenes of early New England, has unfolded another series of memorable pictures of the days when roads and highways connected towns far and distant from each other. Along these roads the reader travels in company with the author -- sometimes walking, sometimes riding in the old-fashioned stagecoach, and listening to her point out the meaning of the fascinating things which they see on the journey -- taverns and inns, mail coaches drawn by "lifey" horses, farmers on their way to mill, powerful oxen lazily pulling the plough, and shrewd, straightforward, honest citizens carrying on the affairs of the early town business and government. We see snowbound New England, with frozen noses and joyous sledding; we look into the inns with their quaint fireplaces and hardy bedrooms; we read fragments of old diaries in the quaint manner of old New England farmers. This fascinating world Mrs. Rawson recaptures -- a whole vanished world caught just as it disappears, over the horizon. The volume is distinguished, as all of Mrs. Rawson's work is, by the exact transcriptions of old New England language which she has preserved in the homely words and phrases just as they were spoken in the old days, and as they have come down in the speech of old people who still tell her their inherited lore.
