Description

Book Synopsis
In the 1800s, American women were largely restricted to the private sphere. Even as the women's movement came along midcentury, it focused on gaining legal and political rights rather than career opportunities. So it is remarkable that three sisters born in the 1850s, the Owen daughters of Missouri, all achieved success in their careers. This volume tells the story of these exceptional sisters.
