What People are Saying About This

From the Publisher

"I have found this book to be an invaluable collection of primary documents. . . . It gives full expression to the range and diversity of women's voices and experiences and at the same time highlights significant themes that shaped the grand sweep of American women's history from 1600 to 1900."—Jacqueline Jones, Wellesley College
