by Sarah Kemble Knight (Author), George Parker Winship (Introduction by)

The Journal of Madame Knight is a memoir written by Sarah Kemble Knight, an American woman who lived in the 18th century. The book is a detailed account of her journey from Boston to New York City in 1704, which she undertook on horseback. Madame Knight was a remarkable woman for her time, as she was one of the few women who traveled alone and wrote about her experiences. Her journal is a fascinating glimpse into life in colonial America, as she describes the people she meets, the places she visits, and the challenges she faces on her journey. The book is written in a lively and engaging style, and provides a unique perspective on the history of America. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of women, travel, and colonial America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
