Recenzii

"These essays communicate the passionate commitment to social justice of historical figures—like Belle Case La Follette and 1950s librarians in rural Wisconsin—and of the authors of the essays as well."—Erin Smith, University of Texas at Dallas
“Rarely has a collection featured this breadth of scholarship about so many relatively unknown women authors, booksellers, editors, journalists, librarians, and publishers. . . . Women in Print is, quite simply, an essential text for anyone interested in the lives and work of women in American literature.”—Jan Whitt, Journalism History
