Anne Bradstreet Pilgrim and Poet
by Faith Cook Author
Faith Cook's biography of Anne Bradstreet is moving, delightful, God-glorifying, and packed with Heavenly piety. In it, Bradstreet, America's first published poet, declares that she wrote not "to show my skill", but to declare the truth, not to set forth myself, but the glory of God." This stirring biography is great reading for men and women of all ages, but is a particular gem for young women looking for godly mentors.
