Wow. Interesting and new ideas on old thoughts. Worth the read. Can't say I agreed with her but her view was interesting.

A readable, valuable, US history,
By A Customer
This review is from: Disorderly Conduct: Visions of Gender in Victorian America (Paperback)
I found this book to be full of surprises. I now know that it is possible for a thorough, well researched history book to still be very readable. I quickly discarded my fear that a feminist history might be lacking in rigour or respectibility. As a Gilbert & Sullivan enthusiast I am pleased to see bad steroetypes of the victorian era trounced. When I read the discussion of the origins of the AMA, and saw how this relates to its behavior today, I decided this small section alone made the book worth having.
