To read this right after Sandberg's Lean In about women's careers today sure puts it in perspective. To think that Revolutionary women had more autonomy, were businesa owners, soldiers (the only revolutionary soldier buried at west point is a woman) and that by the end of the 18th century they could not own property.

Just was with blacks and Indians the rights of white women ebbed and flowed with economic and social conditions.

This book I believe is out of print. I will look for more work from these authors.
