Review:

"A perspicuous charting of the pilgrim's progress that was Jane Addams's hopeful, generous life."

Kirkus, 11/01/2001

Review:

"[A]t her most astute, Elshtain gives a moving account of a stunningly creative woman occupied cognitively, emotionally and spiritually with the ways an elite in a cosmopolitan society riven by inequality might offer succor to others....Elshtain's book supports, a hundred years later, the young girl's apprehension that ''there's power in me.''

Christine Stansell, New York Times Book Review, 01/27/2002

Book Description: The Perseus Books Group, United States, 2002. Paperback. Book Condition: New. New edition. 204 x 135 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery. This major new interpretive biography--by one of America's foremost public intellectuals--eloquently examines Jane Addams's cultural and political influence on her time and ours. In this eagerly anticipated interpretation of the life and work of quintessential "public intellectual" Jane Addams (1860-1935), Jean Bethke Elshtain explores Addams's legacy thematically and chronologically, recounting her embrace of "social feminism," her challenge to the usual cleavage between "conservative" and "liberal," and the growth of Chicago's famed Hull House into a thriving cultural and intellectual center. Jane Addams and the Dream of American Democracy is a rich and revealing portrait of one of the most extraordinary figures in American history. Bookseller Inventory # AAB9780465019137
