About This Book

A largely self-voiced memoir assembles the author's recollections, speeches, and selections from her published writings to present both private life and public labors. It traces family origins and formative years in the border country, domestic affections, and intellectual development. It follows her emergence as a public campaigner focused on women's education, organized resistance to governmental regulation of vice, and efforts to build federations and coordinate conferences. Chapters recount missions abroad, work relating to India and international meetings, and the rhetorical and organizational means she employed. The volume pairs narrative with edited extracts, portraits, an appendix, and concluding reflections on memory and purpose.

Transcriber's Notes

Obvious typographical errors have been silently corrected. Variations in hyphenation, spelling and punctuation remains unchanged.

Chapter 20, "pleading pleading face to face with God" is probably an error but could be emphasis, so is unchanged.
