A Biography

BY ELIIZABETH CAZDEN

Brief Description:
This first biography of the 19th-century feminist and first American woman to be ordained a Christian minister is steeped in family correspondence, contemporary newspaper accounts, and Blackwell's own work. Cazden follows Blackwell from her student days at Oberlin, through her feminist activity on the lecture circuit with Lucy Stone, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, and Susan B. Anthony, to her marriage to Elizabeth Blackwell's brother Samuel (on condition he would share household responsibilities while she worked) and rearing of five daughters.
