Nazani (MidAtlantic) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)

This review is from: Stranger and Traveler: The Story of Dorothea Dix, American Reformer (Hardcover)

Anyone interested in the 19th century, Victorian era America, or influential women should study the life of Dix. As a crusader for humane treatment of the mentally ill, she could be considered an investigative reporter, as well as a reformer. 360 pages, illustrations, indexed.
