Date of Program:  Wednesday, May 14, 2014 at 7:00 PM

Travel back in time at the Enfield Public Library as Alice Plouchard Stelzer presents, Meet Mehitable-Female Adventurer.

Dressed as a 17th century Puritan woman, Alice Plouchard Stelzer will captivate her audience as she shares stories from her book, Female Adventurers: the women who helped colonize Massachusetts and Connecticut.  The audience will gain insight into the commitment that the dozen of unsung heroes profiled in Alice’s book made, and the challenges they encountered when these courageous women left comfort behind and migrated into the wilderness of New England in the 1630s.
