By Maud Wilder Goodwin

Book Overview

White Aprons is a historical romance novel set in Virginia during the Bacon's Rebellion of 1676. The story follows the lives of two young women, Judith and Dorcas, who come from very different backgrounds but are brought together by their shared experiences during the rebellion. Judith is the daughter of a wealthy planter and is used to a life of luxury and privilege, while Dorcas is an indentured servant who works on Judith's family's plantation. Despite their differences, the two women become close friends and allies as they navigate the dangerous and tumultuous political climate of the rebellion. Along the way, they both fall in love with men who are on opposite sides of the conflict, leading to heartbreak and betrayal. Through it all, Judith and Dorcas remain steadfast in their friendship and their determination to survive and thrive in a world that is not always kind to women. White Aprons is a gripping tale of love, loyalty, and resilience set against the backdrop of one of the most fascinating periods in American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
