A Bell for Adano

Of Wheelmen, the New Woman, and Good Roads: Bicycling in Vermont, 1880-1920
»
Historian Jill Mudgett tells the story of an Indigenous man from southern New England who came to central Vermont during the late-19th century and was the victim of a murder. Recreating community connections in a rural Vermont hill town, this story is about poverty, racism, disability, and gendered violence against women, but is also an account of Indigenous movement and choice despite great obstacles.
