Buchbeschreibung Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Acknowledged as a significant figure in the history of women on the early western frontier, Mary Easton Sibley may be little known to many modern readers. Yet she was involved in most of the important events in nineteenth-century Missouri, pursued and practiced educational innovations, and founded a school that continues to thrive today. This first biography of Sibley sheds new light on this important pioneer.Kristie Wolferman retraces the course of an exciting life, beginning with four-year-old Mary's arrival in St. Louis in 1804 when her father was appointed attorney general for the District of Louisiana - and the Eastons became one of the first American families to settle in this bustling French town. At fifteen, Mary married George Champlin Sibley, the factor of Fort Osage in Western Missouri, where the young bride lived among the Indians on the edge of the frontier and took up her teaching vocation. She then went on to found Linden Wood in St. Charles, the first college for women west of the Mississippi, and she also taught classes for African American and immigrant children. Throughout the story, Wolferman shows us a life intimately entwined with the history of the state, as Mary witnessed St. Louis in its primitive years and frontier life at Fort Osage, as well as changes in Indian policy and citizenship for former slaves.Although Sibley's life has been told in older accounts, Wolferman's is the first to fully draw on Mary and George Sibley's journals and letters, with Mary's ""spiritual journal"" especially shedding light on her views regarding women's social and political roles, slavery, temperance, religion, and other topics. By reconstructing Sibley's inner life, as well as her career, Wolferman depicts not merely a frontier heroine and educational pioneer but an assertive woman who did not hesitate to express unconventional views.Today, Lindenwood University is a major coeducational institution that continues to honor Mary Sibley's philosophy and dedication. This biography not only brings to life one of Missouri's most remarkable women educators but also demonstrates how her story reflects educational, religious, and social developments in both the state and nation. ""The Indomitable Mary Easton Sibley"" recognizes her as a key player on the frontier and as a major part of Missouri's heritage. Acknowledged as a significant figure in the history of women on the early western frontier, Mary Easton Sibley was involved in most of the important events in nineteenth-century Missouri, and pursued and practiced educational innovations. This biography sheds light on this important pioneer. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.
