Jane Addams became one of the most influential women of the 19th century by helping the poor and infirm. Her noble work, at a time when woman weren’t even considered people, is inspirational. This biography of the famous woman examines her troubled early life and her sketchy medical and mental health. For the first time, Gioia Diliberto also delves into Addams’ two marriage-like relationships with women in A Useful Woman. | A Useful Woman by Gioia Diliberto, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
