About this book
Thirty-seven essays on the women of the day, first run in London's Saturday Review and reprinted in New York in 1868 with an introduction by Mrs. Lucia Gilbert Calhoun. Titles include "The Girl of the Period" and "Husband-Hunting," and other pieces take up unequal marriages, plain girls, ambitious wives, modern mothers, dress, engagements, match-making and woman's work.
The articles appeared unsigned, and the note at the front says guesses about their author named both men and women. E. Lynn Linton is now known as the writer of the opening essay, the most famous of the series.
