''Sketches of Green Mountain Life'' is a memoir written by Elizabeth Allen in 1845. The book provides a vivid portrayal of life in the Green Mountains of Vermont during the early 19th century. Allen describes the natural beauty of the area, including the mountains, forests, and rivers, as well as the challenges faced by the early settlers who made their homes there. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part consisting of a series of sketches that depict various aspects of life in the Green Mountains. These sketches cover a wide range of topics, including hunting and fishing, farming, logging, and the local culture and customs. The second part of the book is an autobiography of the author, in which she describes her own experiences growing up in the Green Mountains. Allen provides a detailed account of her childhood, including her education, family life, and the various challenges she faced as a young woman in a rural community. Overall, ''Sketches of Green Mountain Life'' is a fascinating glimpse into the history and culture of rural Vermont during the early 19th century. Allen’s vivid descriptions and personal anecdotes make the book an engaging and informative read for anyone interested in the history of the region.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
