This thoroughly revised edition of the classic text in American women's social history contains about twenty selections from the original volume and almost sixty new ones. Presenting a diverse collection of documents, it reaches from the colonial era through the nineteenth century, and focuses on six dominant themes: women's work, the power of gender, the physical body, women's collective efforts, diversity and conflict among women, and women's relation to state authority.
