To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

I am not writing anything yet of the more refined part of the colony, but what I say now is confined to a tract of about 200 miles ; for in some other parts you will find many coquettes and prudes, as well as in other places ; nor, perhaps, may the lap-dog or monkey be forgotten."' At all events woman's civic service was mainly in the home.
Concerning Virginia an eighteenth century writer said: Of the planters' ladies, I must speak in terms of unqualified praise; they had an easy kindness of ma...nner, as far removed from rudeness as from reserve. . . To the influence of their society, I chiefly attribute their husband's refinement.
A nineteenth century writer on Norfolk, looking back, said: [The colonial ladies were] noted for their personal attractions ; and many, in the higher walks of life, for great dignity of char- j acter, modesty, and politeness of behavior, as well as for their '^ activity and frugality in the management of their household affairs. These commendable qualities left their impress and beneficial influence upon succeeding generations.
