the Nineteenth Century," says:
"She was one of the earliest, as well as ablest, among American
women to demand for her sex equality before the law with her
titular lord and master. Her writings on this subject have the
force that springs from the ripening of profound reflection into
assured conviction. It is due to her memory, as well as to the
great and living cause of which she was so eminent and so fearless
an advocate, that what she thought and said with regard to the
position of her sex and its limitations should be fully and fairly
placed before the public." No woman who wishes to understand the
full scope of what is called the woman's movement should fail to
read these pages, and see in them how one woman proved her right to
a position in literature hitherto occupied by men, by filling it
nobly.
The Story of this rich, sad, striving, unsatisfied life, with its
depths of emotion and its surface sparkling and glowing, is told
tenderly and reverently by her biographers. Their praise is eulogy,
and their words often seem extravagant; but they knew her well,
they spoke as they felt. The character that could awaken such
interest and love surely is a rare one.
