- Description
- Boylan explored the flourishing of women's volunteer associations in the decades following the Revolution. She examined the entire spectrum of early nineteenth-century women's groups - Protestant, Catholic, and Jewish: African American and white: middle and working class - to illuminate the ways in which race, religion, and class could bring women together in pursuit of common goals or drive them apart.

- Description
- Field argues that attaining adulthood--and the associated political rights, economic opportunities, and sexual power that come with it--became a common goal for both white and African American feminists between the American Revolution and the Civil War. The idea that black men and all women were more like children than adult white men proved difficult to overcome, however, and continued to serve as a foundation for racial and sexual inequality for generations.
