Book Description Condition: Very Good. 1981. Hardcover. Routledge and Kegan Paul, 1981, 1st edn. with dust cover, in mint condition; grey cloth; xii+351pp+51pp biblio, notes, index; The late nineteenth-century feminism that William Leach brings alive in the pages of this book was bound together by the ideologies of rational "true" love; demystified sex?without shame or secrets; marriage free from female exploitation; and sexual self-ownership ("the right to her own body"). In addition, feminists struggled to achieve economic autonomy; fashion reform; vigorous health and hygiene; religious freedom; and a disciplined symmetry of mind, body, and spirit. Feminism and the reform movement it helped to create, argues Leach in this brilliant book, defined the contours of twentieth-century progressivism. Leach shows how the feminists of both sexes sought to produce a cooperative world of sexual equality and social har mony. For this, their goals were not limited to the reform of the home and a cessation of the battle between the sexes, but also included reform of the professions, universities, prisons, and asylums. The creation of this rich texture of personality, place, and event?the gallery of spirited feminists, their clubs, institutions of reform, and their struggles?is itself a major intellectual achievement, placing Leach in the forefront of young historians and providing the reader with persuasive evidence of the power and scale of feminism and its lasting effect on the American social order. 9½x6½". . . . . .
