This unusual book traces the development of the feminist movement
in America and, to a lesser extent, in England. The comparison
between the movements is enlightening. Professor O'Neill starts
with Mary Wollstonecraft and traces the development of the attack
on Victorian institutions right up to the 1920s and on to the
'permissive' society in which we live. But the story covers all
facets of the movement: the struggle for enfranchisement, for
property rights, and education, for working women in industry, for
temperance and social reform. These remarkable women leaders live
in these pages, but even more in the Documents which form the
second part of the book. Here their own voices come to us across
the years with a sincerity which gives life to the language of a
past age.
