''Stansell brings nineteenth-century New York's working women out of the shadows. . . . A brilliant and original book.''--Katha Pollitt ''Describing the specific moral and economic circumstances of individual female lives, Stansell makes vivid historical sense of what until now has been obscured by generalization, abstraction, and oversimplification.''--Jean Strouse ''This is truly innovative and responsible social history.''--Elaine Showalter ''A fascinating, subtly intelligent work of scholarship.''--Barbara Ehrenreich
