Mistress Bradstreet by Charlotte Gordon
A portrait of the Massachusetts Puritan who became the New World's first best-selling poet discusses the impact of her imperious Protestant father on her life, her ties to the fledgling nation's founding leaders, and her experiences with period politics and disease.

She has published two books of poetry and, most recently, the biography Mistress Bradstreet, which was a Massachusetts Book Award Honor Book.
