Woman in Sacred History

Harriet Beecher Stowe was an American prolific writer and social activist, a woman who wrote about the horrors of slavery before the Civil War. The informal, conversational style of her many novels permitted her to reach millions as a novel and play, and became influential in the United States and Great Britain. 

 “Woman in Sacred History” is a series of biographical sketches, collected by Harriet Beecher Stowe, dedicated to a history of Womanhood under Divine culture, tending toward the development of that high ideal of woman which we find in modern Christian countries.

Stowe was an intense though modest woman who would devote her life to education and good, honest, and compassionate works for others, so it will not leave you indifferent. Enjoy the reading.
