  Set against the backdrop of a young nation struggling to define its identity, Miss Blue Jacket traces the remarkable life of Frances Lloyd Garrison (1776-1823), mother of the renowned abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison. From New Brunswick to New England to Baltimore, she was forced to navigate a world torn by war, upended by trade disruptions, and burdened by disease and slavery. Sustained by her steadfast faith, she weathered loss and separation—and in doing so, helped form the conscience of her surviving son, William, who would rise to become one of the fiercest voices in the American abolitionist movement.

  This book helps readers develop practices that will result in deep, formative, and faithful reading so they can contribute to the flourishing of their communities and cultivate their own spiritual and intellectual depth. 
   
   
   
  The authors present reading as a remedy for three prevalent cultural vices—distraction, hostility, and consumerism—that impact the possibility of formative reading. Informed by James K. A. Smith's work on "the spiritual power of habit," Deep Reading provides resources for engaging in formative and culturally subversive reading practices that teach readers how to resist vices, love virtue, and desire the good. 
   
   
   
  Rather than emphasizing the spiritual benefits of reading specific texts such as Dante's Divine Comedy or Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, the authors focus on the practice of reading itself. They examine practices many teachers, students, and avid readers employ—such as reading lists, reading logs, and discussion—and demonstrate how such practices can be more effectively and intentionally harnessed to result in deepreading. The practices apply to any work that is meant to be read deeply.
