Overview

After the 1637 Mohegan and Pequot War, Hannah finds herself a hostage of unbearable religious dogma in a patriarchal society. She could not fathom the omniscience of God as she witnessed the brutality of man upon fellow man, but she discovers God's grace as He leads her into the uncharted territories of the new world. Follow her journey from a child bride and a woman captive to a woman triumphant in "The Emancipation of Hannah Faythe Winslow."

Description

The Emancipation of Hannah Faythe Winslow: A Woman's Journey in Colonial America, by author Karen Warfield, is a work of literary fiction that incorporates historical facts into themes of deception and restoration. After the 1637 Mohegan and Pequot War, orphaned Hannah is left with a vile and amoral man who evades the local magistrates under the guise of establishing a plantation in southeastern Connecticut. She and the missionaries are sent to bring Christianity to the local tribes under an English charter that guarantees each family a homestead after seven years. But instead of living a Godly, noble life, Hannah finds herself a hostage of unbearable religious dogma and a patriarchal society. She could not fathom the omniscience of God as she witnessed the brutality of man upon fellow man. But Hannah discovers God's grace as He leads her into the uncharted territories of the new world. She was a child bride, a woman captive, and a woman triumphant!
