Described by Henry James as “much less a book than a state of vision,” “Uncle Tom’s Cabin” is probably the most influential work of fiction in American history. Stowe’s moving Christian epic turned millions of Americans against slavery, bringing the “peculiar institution” immeasurably closer to its fiery destruction. In “The Minister’s Wooing” and “Oldtown Folks,” Stowe examines the interplay of religion, domesticity, and women’s roles and choices in the shaping of American culture.
