Elizabeth Seton is a biography written by Madame de Barberey about the life of Elizabeth Ann Seton. Seton was an American Catholic saint who lived in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The book explores her early life as a member of a prominent New York family, her marriage to William Seton, and her eventual conversion to Catholicism. It also delves into her work as a teacher and founder of the first Catholic school in the United States, as well as her establishment of the Sisters of Charity. The book provides a detailed account of Seton's life and the challenges she faced as a woman in a male-dominated society and as a Catholic in a predominantly Protestant country. Through her story, readers gain insights into the history of American Catholicism and the role of women in religious institutions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
