Although she is best known for Uncle Tom’s Cabin, she wrote over 30 books.

[easyazon-link asin=”B00BWYCSOO” locale=”us”]The Minister’s Wooing: A Novel[/easyazon-link]$5.99 for Kindle “This novel deserves to be more popularly known and celebrated. Set in late 18th century New England, and peopled by characters both fictional and historical (including Jonathan Edwards’ notorious grandson Aaron Burr), it examines the differences in how men and women experience American religion while challenging, in a quiet way, the power of a male-dominated clergy and religious establishment.” – Rachel Marie Stone |
