From Library Journal:

This final volume in a documentary history of women's religious contributions in America from colonial times to the present reveals the antecedents of the current women's movement in religion among radical Victorians, female and male. The collection of documents, well introduced and placed in context, covers a wide range of traditionsAmerican Indian, Black, Jewish, Roman Catholic, evangelical, holiness, and pentecostal, as well as mainline Protestant. The general introduction provides a clear overview, while the individual chapters with primary sources furnish details, evidence, and interpretation. Highly recommended. Carolyn M.
