"Brief selection of writings provides insights into diverse experiences and opinions of women in early 20th-century Jamaica. Their comments on issues ranging from politics to social welfare indicate how they sought to influence the realities they faced, and how their lives were shaped by class, race, gender, and nationality. Especially helpful in obtaining framework for understanding Caribbean and Jamaican feminist perspective"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58. http://www.loc.gov/hlas
