Although none of her later novels began to approach “Uncle Tom’s Cabin” in popularity, this novel, which was partially based upon Stowe’s husband’s childhood memories and the residents of his native village of Natick, Massachusetts, is considered one of her best works. The language ranges from homespun dialect and sometimes broad humor to lovely and poignant sentences like, “ours was a household clouded by suppressed regrets, as well as embarrassed by real wants” p. 12.
