The Lowells of Massachusetts: An American Family

"[A] stirring saga...Vivid and intimate, Ms. Sankovitch's account entertains us with Puritans and preachers, Tories and rebels, abolitionists and industrialists, lecturers and poets ... Ms. Sankovitch has made a compelling contribution to Massachusetts and American History."â€•Roger Lowenstein, The Wall Street Journal
"Sankovitch has searched out these letters to write the powerful story of one of America's most extraordinary families, a family that helped shape the course of American history in dramatic and decisive ways...By the final pages of this volume, one feels deeply attached to the individual Lowells, while also exhilarated at having experienced this grand sweep of American history." â€•Charlotte Gordon, Washington Post
Sankovitch's "skillful blending of context and detail makes the vicissitudes of one family emblematic of a nation's."-Â The New Yorker
