DALL, Caroline. The College, The Market, and the Court, or Women's Relation to Education, Labor, and Law. Boston: Lee and Shepard, 1867. Dedicated to early feminist and abolitionist Lucretia Mott. Ex Libris. 498 pages. Comes in original green boards with gilt lettering on spine. The College, the Market, and the Cour was Dall's argument that the modern woman was no longer content to be in the domestic sphere and should be allowed to participate in public life. The New York Evening Post called this collection "the most eloquent and forcible statement of the Woman's Question which has been made." It grapples with topics such as women's entry into the explosively growing industrial workforce, the lives of remarkable learned women who changed public opinion as to the relegation of women to the private realm, and the precedents and justifications for suffrage.
