The award-winning author of The Peabody Sisters takes a fresh look at the trailblazing life of a great American heroine. Whether detailing her front-page New-York Tribune editorials against poor conditions in the city's prisons and mental hospitals, or illuminating her late-in-life hunger for passionate experience - including a secret affair with a young officer in the Roman Guard - Marshall's biography gives the most thorough and compassionate view of an extraordinary woman.
No biography of Fuller has made her ideas so alive or her life so moving.
