Quakers and the American family British settlement… par Barry Levy
The author argues that the Quakers brought a new vision of family and social life to America--one that contrasted sharply with the harsh, formal world of the Puritans in New England. The Quaker emphasis was on affection, friendship and hospitality. They stressed the importance of women in the home, and of self-disciplined, non-coercive childrearing.
Fabulous--a must-read if you're interested in colonial New England history.
