Anne Hutchinson: Religious Leader (Colonial Leaders (Paperback))

Rating:
Summary: Not bad for a kid's version of history
Review: This book does an excellent job of converting the theological and "feminist" issues that caused Anne Hutchinson's banishment and excommunications into language understandable to the targeted age group. It also places those issues firmly in English church history and in Anne Marbury Hutchinson's life. The story is written so that there is sufficient suspense to keep a child interested. My sense of humor does wish, however, that the book noted that 50 years ago Anne's banishment was finally lifted - a mere 3 centuries after her death :-)
