Women of Mark traces the growth of the Woman's Club in Richmond from the dedicated band of fourteen founders to the sixteen hundred members of its centennial year and places the club within the context of women's associations and activities elsewhere in the United States. The story of the club's attempt to remain true to its original educational mission while at the same time adapting to the changing political, economic, and intellectual roles of women in American life will be of interest to those who study the history of women, Richmond, and the twentieth-century South.
