Book Synopsis
200 years ago, the women of revolutionary Paris were demanding legal equality in marriage; educational opportunities for girls; and public instruction, licensing, and support for midwives. This title presents sixty documents which focuses on these and other socioeconomic struggles by women and their impact on the French Revolutionary era.

Trade Review
"For anyone studying the fight by women for equality, this is a most important work, not least because it adds to the increasingly emerging evidence that women have been fighting for a fairer position since well before the nineteenth century." The Book Exchange "This unique collection of documents will be a boon to teachers of history and to scholars of the French Revolution... Recommended." Library Journal
