5.0 out of 5 stars An Early Tribute to a Great Lady, June 7, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Life of Dorothea Lynde Dix (Hardcover)

Francis Tiffany did a great service to the world by writing this early work on the life of Dorothea Dix. His coverage of her efforts is among the first great documents of her plight to improve the mentally ill. Dorothea Dix was first and foremost a lady, and her life's work a testimony to what humans are capable of. This book will always be a classic.
