A comprehensive collection of a fascinating writer. This volume honors a woman who stood among others and elevated the time she lived and worked in with her elegance of prose and matter-of-fact retelling of court proceedings. A must-add to any feminist history collection.

I think Elizabeth Garver Jordan had an incredible writing style that really pulled you in. Although I request this book based on her writing about Lizzie Borden, I was pleasantly surprised by the articles and pieces that she wrote regarding women in the journalism world and other social issues including poverty and low-income class issues.
