About this product

Product Information

Prompted by a serendipitous visit to a bookstore, an epiphany leads Paula Bennett and her husband, Harvey, to southern Maine where they spontaneously buy the General Ichabod Goodwin House with its original nine-over-six windows, wide-plank painted wood floors, early Georgian moldings, and an 8-ft wide hearth perfect for cooking. While learning about 18th-century decor to characterise the furnishing of her historic home, Paula diligently researches the house's first inhabitants. She begins to imagine daily life in 18th-century New England, specifically for the first two Goodwins who lived on their property a father and son, both named Ichabod. Join Paula and Harvey as their shared passion for history leads to an archaeological dig outside their front door, connecting them even more to life in early America, and their avid interest in the culinary arts leads the author to explore and recreate historic recipes, 25 of which are woven throughout the text. Their journey culminates in cherry-picking from the past, recreating aspects of the 18th-century and adapting them into their 21st-century lifestyle. AUTHOR: Paula Bennett taught in public and private schools for over twenty years. During that time, she developed a socially conscious curriculum for a private middle school in Baltimore while serving on boards to support community arts programs. In 2013, Paula decided to semi-retire from the stamp auction world of her husband's business and immersed herself in further researching the history of her house and the town of South Berwick, Maine where since 2004 she has lived with her husband of forty-five years. Since moving to South Berwick, Paula has been actively involved in the local community. SELLING POINTS: A warm, personal account of living in an historic New England Georgian house Rich in local and national history of 18th-century America and descriptions of daily life County records, inventories, a military diary, an archaeologist, and architectural historians, help unravel the history of a house and the family who owned it for over 200 years Includes 25 adapted historic recipes Sources, including 18th-century cooking ingredients, fabric, paint, antiques, and house museums Discoveries from a present-day archaeological excavation A journey into America's past, through research and lifestyle choices A detailed account of a weekend spent living as 18th-century homeowners 68 colour photos
