Credit can be instrumental in equalizing opportunity and
alleviating poverty, yet historically men and women have not had
the same access. Partly because of this, women have been excluded
from many previous economic histories. This book fills a
significant gap in exploring the vexed relationship between the
women and credit across time and space.

Melissa is troubled by the same recurrent nightmare in which a young girl, Rebecca, pleads for help to escape from a dark force, Noctilios, who has found his way into her mind and taken her from the real world to his. Rebecca reveals that Noctilios has taken many people and Melissa is one of his next victims. Unable to convince Melissa of the danger, Rebecca takes desperate measures and attacks her. When Melissa awakes the next morning she is shocked to see bloody marks on her arm. Melissa confides her fears to her husband, Adam, but he thinks she is becoming paranoid and unbalanced. Melissa tracks down Rebecca's family and is shocked to discover that Rebecca disappeared in mysterious circumstances over five years ago. Melissa quickly realises that her dreams are in fact reality and her unique ability to move from one world to the other is the only hope for Rebecca to escape and return to her grieving family. But what is it that Noctilios wants, and can Melissa rescue Rebecca before it is too late?

Nineteenth-century New Brunswick society was dominated by white, Protestant, Anglophone men. Yet, during this time of state formation in Canada, women increasingly helped to define and shape a provincial outlook. I wish to keep a record is the first book to focus exclusively on the life-course experiences of nineteenth-century New Brunswick women. Gail G. Campbell offers an interpretive scholarly analysis of 28 women's diaries while enticing readers to listen to the voices of the diarists. Their diaries show women constructing themselves as individuals, assuming their essential place in building families and communities, and shaping their society by directing its outward gaze and envisioning its future. Campbell's lively analysis calls on scholars to distinguish between immigrant and native-born women and to move beyond present-day conceptions of such women's world. This unique study provides a framework for developing an understanding of women's worlds in nineteenth-century North America.
