Common-place article picked up by the AP

A literary print of "Eliza & Mrs. Shelby" by George Dubois. Published by B.W. Thayer and Co. (Boston, 1852).

We are very excited that an article about the inspiration for Uncle Tom’s Cabin by Susanna Ashton that appeared in the most recent issue of Common-place was picked up by the Associated Press and is getting some national circulation, including in the New York Times over the past weekend. If you haven’t yet read them, be sure to check out both the Common-place article and the AP’s take on Susanna’s findings!
