Excerpt from The Lady: Studies of Certain Significant Phases of Her History0 effect on the status of the lady and their work is not yet complete. In the United States during the two generations preceding the war for the union, the Slave States furnished the background for perhaps the last example the world will see on a large scale of the feudal lady. But the typical lady everywhere tends to the feudal habit of mind. In contemporary society she is an archaism, and can hardly understand herself unless she knows her own history.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
