Aunt Jane of Kentucky by Eliza Calvert Hall
"Aunt Jane of Kentucky" by Eliza Calvert Hall is a collection of nine short stories first published together in 1907. Set in rural western Kentucky during the late nineteenth century, the book features an elderly quilt-maker who shares her memories of southern life with a younger woman visitor. Through Aunt Jane's voice, the stories explore family, community, and women's experiences in rural America. The collection reached approximately one million readers and was
even recommended by President Theodore Roosevelt in a 1908 speech. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
