Keziah Coffin is a novel by Joseph C. Lincoln that tells the story of a young woman named Keziah Coffin. Keziah is a strong-willed and independent woman who lives on the island of Nantucket. She is the daughter of a successful whaling captain, but she is determined to make her own way in the world. The book follows Keziah as she navigates the challenges of life on Nantucket, including the social expectations of her time and the economic struggles of the island. Keziah is a skilled seamstress and she uses her talents to support herself and her family. As the story progresses, Keziah falls in love with a young man named Bartley, who is also a whaling captain. However, their relationship is complicated by the fact that Bartley is already engaged to another woman. Keziah must decide whether to pursue her feelings for Bartley or to move on and find happiness elsewhere. Throughout the novel, Lincoln paints a vivid picture of life on Nantucket in the early 20th century. He explores themes of love, family, and the pursuit of happiness in a society that often places strict limitations on women. Keziah Coffin is a timeless story of a young woman's journey to find her place in the world.He paused in spite of himself. His church, his first church! He had accepted the call with pride and a determination to do his best, the very best that was in him, for the society and for the people whom he was to lead. Some of those people he had learned to love; many of them, he felt sure, loved him. His success, his popularity, the growth of the organization and the praise which had come to him because of it, all these had meant, and still meant, very much to him. No wonder he paused, but the pause was momentary.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
