Women, Culture, and Community: Religion and Reform in Galveston, 1880-1920
Turner, Elizabeth Hayes (Associate Professor of History, Associate Professor of History, University of Houston)
Turner explores why middle-class women expanded their activities from the private to the public sphere and began, just before World War I, an unprecedented period of women's activism. Using Galveston as a case study, the author examines how the ubiquitous community organizations provided a nurturing environment for budding reformers.
