Caroline Healy Dall (1822-1912) was a Transcendentalist who fought tirelessly for women's rights. She was born in Boston, Massachusetts, and benefited from her family's encouragement and funding of her continued education. In 1844, she married a Unitarian minister, Charles Dall. The pair moved to Toronto, but then back to Boston so that Caroline could raise their children while Charles went to Calcutta, India for missionary activities. While Caroline was in Boston, she became very active in the local Women's Rights movement, and organized the New England Women's Rights Convention. She worked closely with fellow suffragist Paulina Davis, and on developing a complimentary journal, Una. While she wrote a great deal on a whole variety of topics, she emphasized women's rights, and transcendentalism. This particular work is semi-autobiographical, as Dall tells of her experiences growing up during the period of slavery in the United States. Through her stories, some of the horrors of slavery and deeply ingrained racism are revealed. This new edition is dedicated to the women of All Souls Unitarian Church in Washington.

Excerpt from Patty Gray's Journey: From Baltimore to Washington Ext week, said Patty, sleepily, as she opened her eyes the day after Christmas. What shall I do when mamma is gone? Then she gave a great stretch, and wished that next week were not quite so near. As she did so, she opened her eyes a very tiny bit, and saw a little gray dress laid out on the bed, just as if some little girl were ready to jump into it. Now, Patty had been measured for this dress in the very middle of the summer, when Moggie had not much to do. She had seen the gray stuff lying round the nursery for a while, but she had soon forgotten all about it.

This fascinating book is the first volume in a projected cultural history of the United States, from the earliest English settlements to our own time. It is a history of American folkways as they have changed through time, and it argues a thesis about the importance for the United States of having been British in its cultural origins. While most people in the United States today have no British ancestors, they have assimilated regional cultures which were created by British colonists, even while preserving ethnic identities at the same time. In this sense, nearly all Americans are "Albion's Seed," no matter what their ethnicity may be. The concluding section of this remarkable book explores the ways that regional cultures have continued to dominate national politics from 1789 to 1988, and still help to shape attitudes toward education, government, gender, and violence, on which differences between American regions are greater than between European nations.
