Notes
Index
Martha H. Patterson is an associate professor of English at McKendree University in Illinois and the author of Beyond the Gibson Girl: Reimagining the American New Woman, 1895-1915.
Martha Patterson is the right person for this project. I see a
bright future for this book in undergraduate and graduate
courses--from American literature and history to media and women's
studies.
