MEMOIRS OF ELLEANOR ELDRIDGE. by ELEANOR ELDRIDGE. Memoirs of Elleanor Eldridge

This is an exceptional antebellum biography, chronicling Elleanor Eldridge's life from her birth through the first publication of almost yearly editions of the text between 1838 and 1847. Because of Eldridge's exceptional life as a freeborn woman of colour entrepreneur, it constitutes a counter-narrative to slave narratives of early 19th-century New England.
