Jewett, (Theodora) Sarah Orne (sh)




born Sept. 3, 1849, South Berwick, Maine, U.S.
died June 24, 1909, South Berwick

Concerned to capture the folkways of a vanishing culture, she wrote realistic sketches of aging Maine natives, whose manners, idioms, and pithiness she recorded with pungency and humour. Outstanding among her 20 volumes are Deephaven (1877), A White Heron (1886), and The Country of the Pointed Firs (1896).
