On July 28, 1797, an elderly Lenape woman stood before the newly appointed almsman of Pennsylvania's Chester County and delivered a brief account of her life. In a sad irony, Hannah Freeman was establishing her residency--a claim that paved the way for her removal to the poorhouse. Ultimately, however, it meant final removal from the ancestral land she had so tenaciously maintained. Thus was William Penn's "peaceable kingdom" preserved.

A Lenape among the Quakers reconstructs Freeman's history, from the days of her grandmothers before European settlement to the beginning of the nineteenth century. The story that emerges is one of persistence and resilience, as "Indian Hannah" negotiates life with the Quaker neighbors who employ her, entrust their children to her, seek out her healing skills, and, when she is weakened by sickness and age, care for her. Yet these are the same neighbors whose families then dispossess her own. Fascinating in its own right, Freeman's life is also remarkable as a unique account of a Native American woman in a colonial community during a time of dramatic transformation and upheaval. In particular, it expands our understanding of colonial history and the Native experience that history often renders silent.

Super Comfortable and Great Quality!
Size: Medium, Color: (001) Black / Black / White
These Under Armour socks are hands down some of the best I’ve ever worn. They are incredibly soft, breathable, and provide just the right amount of cushioning for all-day comfort. Whether I’m working out, running errands, or just lounging around, they feel great on my feet. The fit is perfect—not too tight, but snug enough to stay in place without slipping down. Plus, they hold up well after multiple washes without losing their shape or softness. If you’re looking for high-quality, comfortable socks that feel amazing to wear, these are definitely worth it. Highly recommend!

Good sock, size is a little big
Size: Large, Color: (100) White / White / Black, Size: Large, Color: (100) White / White / Black
Good quality material and fairly thick. Size large for a 9.5 shoe is a little big for the foot portion as the heel sits too high but the overall length is good.
