Through the lens of a cantankerous husband and wife, the story vividly captures Saratoga's vibrant past with delightful irreverence. Marietta Holley, also known as Jemyma and Josiah Allen's Wife, was a prominent American humorist of the late 19th century. Despite being compared to Mark Twain during her lifetime, she, like many female artists, faded from the spotlight after her 1926 passing. Holley's legacy as an early female humorist endures, appealing to diverse audiences with themes of prohibition and women's rights woven into her works. And Check out our other items!
