Book Synopsis Wives and Mothers, Schoolmistresses and Scullery Maids by : Elizabeth Jane Errington
Book excerpt: Arguing that the role of Upper Canadian women in the overall economy of the early colonial period has been greatly undervalued by contemporary historians. Jane Errington illustrates how the work they did, particularly as wives and mothers, played a significant role in the development of the colony.
