RE: Who is this person?
That would be Sarah Hale, who was known as the "mother of Thanksgiving" for her campaign to have the New England-based celebration turned into a national holiday, which it was during the Civil War. The book she wrote in 1827 was called Northwood.
Best Rob Abraham Lincoln is the only man, dead or alive, with whom I could have spent five years without one hour of boredom. --Ida M. Tarbell
I want the respect of intelligent men, but I will choose for myself the intelligent. --Carl Sandburg
