A fascinating history of the daily lives of Americans in the first fifty years of the new republic, told often in their own words.

A Chicago native and graduate of Harvard College and Brandeis University, Larkin is author of Where We Worked, published with the National Trust for Historic Preservation, and The Reshaping of Everyday Life 1790-1840, which was a Distinguished Finalist for the PEN/Martha Albrand Award for Nonfiction in 1989.
