A New England Woman is a novel written by Robert Fennimore and published in 1894. The story is set in the late 19th century in a small town in New England and follows the life of a young woman named Mary, who is determined to break free from the traditional roles assigned to women in her community. Mary is intelligent, independent, and ambitious, and she dreams of pursuing a career in medicine despite the societal norms that dictate women should be homemakers.As Mary navigates the challenges of pursuing her dreams, she encounters resistance from her family and community, who view her aspirations as unconventional and even dangerous. Despite these obstacles, Mary persists, and her determination and hard work eventually pay off as she is accepted into medical school.The novel explores themes of gender roles, societal expectations, and the pursuit of personal fulfillment. It offers a nuanced portrayal of the challenges faced by women in the late 19th century and celebrates the courage and resilience of those who dared to defy convention and follow their dreams.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
