4.0 out of 5 stars Academic, Eye-Opening, June 13, 2008
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Ida Tarbell: Portrait of a Muckraker (Paperback)
This biography is fairly academic; yet provides some excellent insights into a period of time that is, I think, somewhat ignored in historical study. I very much came to admire and understand Ida as a complicated woman dealing with what life hands to her. I also came to appreciate my historical period because of the choices I have which were not available to Ida, but oh, what she accomplished with the choices she had!
