  • Suffrage Reconstructed: Gender, Race, and Voting Rights in the Civil War Era

    Anne M BoylanARTICLEJournal of American History2016

    In Suffrage Reconstructed Laura E. Free addresses a seemingly simple but utterly consequential matter: how the word male—the only explicit gender reference in the U.S. Constitution—became part of the Fourteenth Amendment. As such, the book engages works in women's and gender history, along with studies of the evolution of nineteenth-century democratic citizenship. In six crisply argued chapters, Free employs a fine-grained rhetorical analysis to …

  • Lucretia Mott's Heresy: Abolition and Women's Rights in Nineteenth-Century America

    Anne M BoylanARTICLEJournal of American History2012

    Carol Faulkner’s new biography of Lucretia Mott is most welcome. Although Margaret Hope Bacon’s Valiant Friend (1980) introduced Mott to modern readers, no scholar since then has attempted to capture both the public and the private woman or, more importantly, to place her life story within the context of recent historiography and feminist biography. Faulkner is the ideal historian for her subject. Not only did she serve as editor (with Beverly Wi…

    To most Americans of the early nineteenth century, and were mutually exclusive categories. Politics was a public endeavor and as such belonged to the world of men. Women's world, or sphere, to use the widely employed term, was to revolve around the private arena of home and family. Home is [woman's] appropriate sphere of action, wrote Mrs. A. J. Graves in 1841; and whenever she neglects these duties, or goes out of this sphere of action to in any…
