I Wish to Keep a Record Nineteenth-Century New Brunswick Women Diarists and Their World

‘This is a volume that is a must read for those who are engaged in the history of New Brunswick and for those who themselves are trying to tease out the stories of women in the nineteenth- century settler world of North America.’

"These diaries present an engaging sense of history from below, as lived and felt by its participants...Consistently well documented, this study nicely positions the lives of these New Brunswick women within the larger context of nineteenth-century women’s history."
