"While you are experimenting, do not
remain content with the surface of things.
Don't become a mere recorder of facts,
but try to penetrate the mystery of their
orgin."
~Isabel Allende

of time, she made a change--her books
are still in publication. "A View of Religion",
1791; "A Summary History of New England"
1801; "History of the Jews",1812; "Letters
on the Gospel", 1824. Ms. Adams was
