The Sewing Girl's Tale: A Story of Crime and Consequences in Revolutionary America by John Wood Sweet

challenging dark emotional informative medium-paced

4.5

For an informative, heavily-researched book, it was an extremely enjoyable read. The voice used to narrate the story was generally impartial when giving the historical background and facts, but I really enjoyed the reflective tone used to elaborate on particular aspects of the book to link Lanah Sawyer’s story to society at the time of the case, to where society stands today. A great read!!
