Produced by David Widger "Margaret Smith's Journal, and Tales and Sketches" by John Greenleaf Whittier is a historical account penned during the late 19th century. The work is a collection of writings that not only showcases the fictional journal of Margaret Smith, a woman in the 17th-century Massachusetts Bay Colony, but also presents a tapestry of tales and sketches that reflect the life and times of early New England. The narrative likely explores themes of migration, cultural encounters, and the struggles of life in a new land, introduced through the eyes of Margaret—a character who witnesses and interacts with a diverse cast of individuals in her new home. At the start of this journal, Margaret Smith recounts her early experiences after arriving in Massachusetts Bay in 1678. She reflects on her voyage filled with discomfort and longing for her old life, only to find solace in the beauty of her new surroundings. As she settles with her relatives, she introduces various characters, including her cousin Rebecca and an intriguing young man named Robert Pike, who seems to harbor a deeper affection for Rebecca. The opening portion establishes not only her personal journey but also the dynamics of her relationships in this new world, as well as her initial encounters with indigenous peoples and the complexities of cultural interaction. Through her eyes, readers begin to understand the trials and joys of adapting to life in colonial America.
