Introduction -- Prologue -- Hardy Puritan pioneers -- Three struggling patriarchs -- A brutal murder -- A criminal lunatic -- A messy divorce -- The inheritance -- Blood will tell -- Conclusion.
In this compelling and meticulously researched work of micro-history, Ava Chamberlain unearths a fuller history of Elizabeth Tuttle. It is a violent and tragic story in which anxious patriarchs struggle to govern their households, unruly women disobey their husbands, mental illness tears families apart, and loved ones die sudden deaths.
