Description
The Silver Tarn by Katharine Adams is a historical account of Mehitable Webster's life in school in Yorkshire, England. Set against the backdrop of 19th-century education, this story explores the experiences of a young girl from New England in a British boarding school. In this unique and lesser-known tale, Adams sheds light on the lives of students who traveled across the Atlantic to receive an education in a foreign land. The Silver Tarn offers a fascinating glimpse into the daily life, challenges, and triumphs of Mehitable Webster and her peers. With its historical significance and insight into the educational experiences of a bygone era, this book is a valuable addition to anyone interested in the history of education or the lives of women in the 19th century.
