200th Anniversary of the Birthday of Harriet Beecher Stowe


Happy 200th To Harriet Beecher Stowe. (Hartford Courant, 6/9/2011)

I've haven't read Uncle Tom's Cabin -- never had the inclination to do so -- but now I'm curious to experience the book first-hand, via audio.  Or, at least, give it a shot.  Years ago, once I started a book, I remained determined to finish it.  Which is why I rarely made rash decisions about what to read.  I'm still a very thorough browser, in an older sense of the word.

    You should read the book and see what all the fuss is about. My great, great, great, grandmother made an amazing impression on America and on woman! I am very proud to be related to her and named after her.

    Love Harriet Beecher Stowe III
