Breaking the Bonds: Marital Discord in Pennsylvania, 1730-1830 - The American Social Experience
Merril D. Smith

The difficulties that rose, including abuse, and domestic violence differ little from those with which couples struggle today. This account reveals a strongly communicative world in which neighborers came to the aid of those locked in unhappy marriages.
