Able-Bodied Womanhood: Personal Health and Social Change in Nineteenth-Century Boston
Verbrugge, Martha H. (Associate Professor of History, Associate Professor of History, Bucknell University)
Against the backdrop of national debate about female duties and well-being, this book follows middle-class women as they learned about physiology and hygiene through popular health literature, voluntary clubs, and schools in Boston. The pursuit of health also enabled the women to explore the nature of womanhood, and discover the meanings.
