Stepping Lively in Place: The Not-Married, Free Women of Civil-War-Era Natchez, Mississippi
Joyce Linda Broussard
Broussard looks at all types of single women—black and white, law-abiding and criminal—including spinsters, widows, divorcees, and abandoned women. She demonstrates the nuanced degrees to which these women understood that the legal, cultural, and social traditions of their place and time could alternately constrain or empower them.
