Writing on the eve of the German Revolution of 1848, she founded a short-lived revolutionary newspaper and even rode into battle. Later, in exile in the United States, she used her journalistic and oratory skills in support of the women’s suffrage and anti-slavery movements. This book is an excellent supplemental reading for women’s studies and history classes as well as German literature in translation.
