I really enjoy these author interviews!

Fantastic interview, can’t wait to read this book

I’m reading the book now. It’s good.

You bring back so many memories of the Vietnam years. I was a young Air Force wife at the time. I lost 2 friends. It was a terrible time.

I just finished The Women. I really liked it. It taught me a lot.

Several years of intensive independent research has suggested, to me, that Margaret Fuller was a literary and intellctual imposter. Specifically, she falsely claimed authorship of the reviews signed "F." in "The Dial," and the "star"-signed reviews, essays and reports in the 1844-46 New York "Tribune." She was only the editor in both cases--the real author, I have concluded, was Mathew Franklin Whittier, the younger brother of poet John Greenleaf Whittier. In my opinion, Fuller plagiarized eleven of Mathew's pieces in her 1846 compilation, "Papers On Literature and Art."

Just pre ordered the book, so excited for a new book about amazing women.

What a joy. Thank you

This HHH was one of the best!! I'm happy you record these for those of us who miss the live Zoom meetings! Kudos to Charlie!!

Kudos to the cover designer--SO pretty 🎉

The Original Black Elite sounds right up my alley--a 'cultural biography' --so cool!

Love hearing all this backstory and historical detail from Avery!! So great.

Great interview!

Jane - Bravo for bringing the history of Edith Guerieer, Edith Brown, and Helen Storrow to a new audience. These women made a big difference to many young immigrant women who went on to expand their lives. Kudos to your husband's support.

So happy I stumbled onto your podcast via Gill Paul's instagram post. Caught up on this great interview with Madeleine and look forward to watching more.

I loved this book. I lived in northern rural Maine for 3 years- on the Kennebec River! Actually further north- Hinckley Me- I could relate to so much. And midwifery and the 1700s...so much. great story.

Loved all the interesting New York history.I've go to start reading her books.

Enjoyed the book, but I found an error. At some point, you compared someone to a woman from a Pre-Raphaelite painting. You said something about seeing these paintings in a book of Italian art. Look up the Pre-Raphaelites and you will see the time and place mistakes.

I really enjoyed your interview. I facilitate a book club and this is the book we will be reading. I do research into the factual parts of it and this interview has really shared some light on that, so have shared it with my book club participants. I love the way you interview and the questions that you ask. Thank you.

Yay!! Congrats 🎉

Amen! ✌💯

I have been searching for this very book for about 10 years. Wonderfully done!

Thank you for this interview! I just finished listening to The Witch of Tin Mountain on Audible. I love this book for so many reason. Historical fiction is my favorite genre. My maternal grandmother and her family are from Oklahoma and Arkansas. I love a good witchy story. And I’m very interested in natural healing. Now that I’ve listened to the story, I’ll be ordering the book so I can savor, take notes and study it! I’m reading Parting the Veil next!

This is so interesting but it's a shame that the sound quality is so poor.

Wonderful interview. Thank you. I loved the book and was looking for more. This was great.

It was such a wonderful meeting! Thank you for making the replay available!

Ahh, I heard about this book through A Mighty Blaze but didn't realize the gist of the story--sounds so good! Kind of like a Susanna Kearsley supernatural tinge and women's fiction for the realness of emotional stakes. UGH YES

I enjoyed this thought provoking novel. I learned from a book that I had to keep picking up to read more.

Terrific interview. Thank you.

I had just finished reading this novel before finding this interview. I really loved it. Was excited to learn of a historical fiction book from women's perspective since my maternal grandmom entered the USA from Hungary in 1913 with a female cousin (both alone, age 19). This story exposed some dangers that could beset young women. Also, have visited Ellis Island twice so the author's descriptions were awesome. Recommend a good read.

I really learned a lot about the war in the Philippines by reading this book. The two main characters, Tess and Flor, and their sisterhood of nurses engaged my interest in how they survived while striving to serve the troops. Thank you for the interesting interview which covered the background research and writing process. I hope to recommend this book to my book club and others.

🥰🥰🥰

This was an excellent book

This is fantastic! These stories are so interesting. It really added to the book. I just finished it. Loved it and the background story made it so much better.
