Description
1869 1ed Harriet Beecher Stowe Oldtown Folks American Revolution New England



Known mostly for her cultural defining work ‘Uncle Tom’s Cabin,’ Harriet Beecher Stowe presents "Oldtown Folks." Harriet Beecher Stowe wrote this 1869 novel with the intent of describing a New England village’s life and character in the years after the Revolutionary War, before the advent of industrialization. She based some of the book on the childhood memories of her husband, Calvin Ellis Stowe, and the residents of his birthplace, Natick, Massachusetts. The novel played a prominent role in the local color movement in American letters. It is of special interest in its comments on religion, which reflect the author’s lifelong religious development from the modified Calvinism of her father, Lyman Beecher, to a late-nineteenth-century form of sentimentalized Episcopalianism.
