Sketches of a New England Village: In the Last Century is a book written by Eliza Buckminster Lee and published in 1838. The book is a collection of essays and anecdotes that describe life in a small New England village during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Through her writing, Lee provides a detailed and intimate portrait of the people, customs, and daily life of the village. She covers topics such as education, religion, social customs, and the role of women in the community. Lee’s writing is vivid and engaging, and she brings the village to life with her descriptions of the landscape, buildings, and people. The book is an important historical document, providing a glimpse into a bygone era and a way of life that has since disappeared. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of New England or the social and cultural history of the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
