| Summary | "Home Life in Colonial Days" by Alice Morse Earle is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book examines the daily lives and domestic settings of early American colonists, focusing on their homes, furnishings, and lifestyle during the colonial period. It provides a rich tapestry of historical insights into the practicalities and traditions of the time. The opening of the book delves into the various forms of shelter that the colonists employed upon settling in America. It describes the early settlers' struggles for shelter amid abundant natural resources, detailing how they often resorted to cave-dwelling or log cabins due to the lack of tools and materials. It highlights the evolution of colonial homes, including the design and materials used, while contrasting the settlers' homes with those of Native Americans. The author illustrates the ingenuity and resilience of the colonists, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of other aspects of colonial domestic life throughout the rest of the text.
