Synopsis

Jane Addams entered 1901 as a confident voice in the American settlement movement and pioneer in many of its methods. The period that followed marked the dramatic expansion of the Hull-House campus and its reach even as Addams increasingly devoted more time to lecturing, lobbying, and building bridges of reform in Chicago, Washington, D.C., and beyond.

The fourth volume in the series follows Addams's increasingly busy life. Her activities included greater participation in the women's suffrage movement and speaking tours of twenty-five states and the District of Columbia to discuss child labor, settlement work, and women's issues. At the same time, she maintained relationships with an intimate circle of female friends, her extended family, the Hull-House community, and most importantly her companion Mary Rozet Smith. The editors provide an extensive collection of documents on this side of Addams's life while rooting her in the unique time and place of an era of fast and far-reaching change.
