The book was published in 1839, after her death, and provides a glimpse into the life of a woman who was deeply involved in the religious, social, and political issues of her time.Isabella Graham was born in Scotland in 1742 and immigrated to New York with her husband, John Graham, in 1765. She was a devout Christian and played an active role in the founding of the first Presbyterian church in New York City. She was also a strong advocate for women's education and helped establish the first female seminary in the United States.The letters in the book cover a wide range of topics, including her religious beliefs, her involvement in social and political causes, and her personal relationships with family and friends.
