Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This detailed collection of chronicles and short stories by the author offers a rich insight into the traditions, customs, and folklore of the people of New England in the mid-19th century. Set primarily in the fictional town of Danvis, the book takes a close look at the daily lives of rural New Englanders as they navigated the changing times around them. The stories capture the distinct cadence of Yankee speech, folklore, and nuanced cultural practices of the region, with a focus on the social and economic changes brought on by the Industrial Revolution and the impact they had on the people and landscape of New England.
