Publisher's Synopsis
""Crusader and Feminist: Letters of Jane Grey Swisshelm 1858-1865"" is a collection of letters written by Jane Grey Swisshelm, a prominent journalist and women's rights advocate during the mid-19th century. The letters, which were written between 1858 and 1865, provide a unique insight into the life and struggles of a woman who fought for social justice and equality during a time when women were not given a voice in society. Through her letters, Swisshelm discusses a wide range of topics, including her experiences as a journalist, her involvement in the abolitionist movement, and her efforts to promote women's rights. She also writes about her personal life, including her relationships with family and friends, and her struggles with illness and financial difficulties. Overall, ""Crusader and Feminist"" offers a fascinating glimpse into the life of a pioneering woman who fought tirelessly for the rights of others, and whose legacy continues to inspire feminists and social justice advocates today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
