Historian Laurel Thatcher Ulrich elegantly describes the domestic domain in her book Good Wives. Her ability to narratively "map" the domestic sites she discusses and chart the time and place of her research is of particular interest to me. These drawings are an interpretation of an 18th Century woman's world using Ulrich’s narrative, and begins to visualize the imagination of the woman’s landscape inside a Maine homestead.
