Summary

Little has been published about press organizations, and even less about women's press organizations. This book is the first to document the history of women's press organizations in the United States. In addition to rich historical accounts of some of these organizations, it also provides a picture of many of the women journalists involved in these press organizations, many of whom were leaders, both in journalism and in the social movements of their time.
