Analyzing the careers of more than two thousand women who owned or operated businesses between 1830 and 1885, Lewis argues that business provided a ...

Victorians and the Virgin Mary: Religion and Gender In England 1830-1885 (Gender in History)
Carol Engelhardt Herringer

Manchester University Press, 2008

This interdisciplinary study of competing representations of the Virgin Mary examines how anxieties about religious and gender identities intersected to create public controversies that, while ostensibly about theology and liturgy, were also attempts to define the role and nature of women.

Don't get me wrong, I have nothing but admiration for native Americans. I have studied Custer and the LBH Battle most of my adult ...
