A Woman's Life-Work by Laura S. Haviland.
Excerpt from A Woman's Life-Work: Labors and Experiences of Laura S. Haviland The ready sales of the two editions of the unpretending book entitled, "A Woman's Life Work," during the two years past, induces the author to venture a third edition, with earnest prayer that the youth may be encouraged, the middle-aged strengthened, and the aged invigorated in working together with God, in rescuing the perishing by the perusal of these simple recitals of trials and victories, that have been neither few nor far between. Yet these checkered paths are for all earnest workers for God and humanity; but with the eye of faith we see the ready hand that uplifted doubting Peter when dashing waves caused that beloved disciple to cry for help. Sustaining grace was found while standing by my dying son Joseph B. Haviland, of Traverse City. When the brittle thread of life was broken I cried in my distress: "Oh, Lord! why, oh, why must this dear one be taken in the prime of life from his devoted family? and here am I, past threescore years and ten, to be left. But thou knowest all, and doest all things well. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

From one of our most important scholars and civil rights activist icon, a powerful study of the women’s liberation movement and the tangled knot of oppression facing Black women. “Angela Davis is herself a woman of undeniable courage. She should be heard.”—The New York Times Angela Davis provides a powerful history of the social and political influence of whiteness and elitism in feminism, from abolitionist days to the present, and demonstrates how the racist and classist biases of its leaders inevitably hampered any collective ambitions. While Black women were aided by some activists like Sarah and Angelina Grimke and the suffrage cause found unwavering support in Frederick Douglass, many women played on the fears of white supremacists for political gain rather than take an intersectional approach to liberation. Here, Davis not only contextualizes the legacy and pitfalls of civil and women’s rights activists, but also discusses Communist women, the murder of Emmitt Till, and Margaret Sanger’s racism. Davis shows readers how the inequalities between Black and white women influence the contemporary issues of rape, reproductive freedom, housework and child care in this bold and indispensable work.
