Summer on the Lakes in 1843

Summer On The Lakes, In 1843 is not simply Fuller's portfolio of sketches, poems, stories, anecdotes, dialogues, and reflections on her Great Lakes journey, but also a record of her internal journey of self-exploration. Specialists in women's studies will be drawn to her impressions of 'women of the west, ' which in some ways foreshadow her will-known feminist study Women in the Nineteenth Century.
