| Plot Summary of Catherwood |
|---|
"Catherwood is a young woman, newly married, who settles with husband and family near Albany, New York in 1676. One spring day she goes out on walk with her year-old daughter and in an instant, they are lost in the wilderness. The beauty and harshness of the land work a change on her. This little gem of a book (165 pages) is tightly written and deserves a slow-paced read. "
