Book excerpt: From the Publisher: "Time by Moments Steals Away" records a year in the life of a young woman newly married to one of the most experienced geological explorers in Michigan's early copper mining period and sheds new light on state history. Ruth Edgerton Douglass's diary recounts her winter journey from Detroit to Wisconsin and then her life through autumn and into the following winter on Isle Royale, where her husband had been hired to supervise a mining operation. She shares something of the contrast between the city life she had known and the backwoods existence she came to lead with her husband. Hers is one of the few firsthand accounts we now have of life on Isle Royale at the beginning of its role in the newly developing copper trade. Ruth Douglass's brief journal provides an invaluable look back at Michigan's mining boom and at the people who opened up some of the least settled regions of the state. Robert Root's presentation of that journal clarifies many points for scholars and enriches our understanding of the region's history.

Download or read book Recovering Ruth written by Robert L. Root and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2003-01-01 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The task of editing and annotating a nineteenth-century diary seemed straightforward at first, but as Robert Root assembled scattered fragments of lost history and immersed himself in background research, he became enmeshed in unexpected ways. When doubts arose about who really wrote the journal, Root found himself plunged into a mystery of lost identity, drawn ever deeper into the drama and complexity of forgotten lives and engaged in a quest at times both compulsive and quixotic. Part memoir, part meditation on the nature of biography, Recovering Ruth is the absorbing story of recovering a hidden past?and of learning firsthand the complications of intimacy that develop between a biographer and his subject.
