Alice Morse Earle

Alice Morse Earle (1851-1911). Her writings, beginning in 1890, focused on small sociological details rather than grand details, and thus are invaluable for modern social historians. Other works include Home Life in Colonial Days , Costume of Colonial Times , Colonial Dames and Good Wives , Curious Punishments of Bygone Days , and Child Life in Colonial Days .
