Mistress Bradstreet: The Untold Life of America's First Poet by Charlotte Gordon

3.0

I can't give this book just one star because I might have liked it had I finished it. It is very detailed and I just couldn't get through it all. Also, I was hoping for more bits and pieces of Bradstreet's poetry. Anne Bradstreet, the first published writer in America, made a very important contribution to the history of American literature. But I really did not get much out of this book.
