Voices and Masks: The Experience of Nineteenth Century Mill Girls and Enslaved Women from Primary Sources

No Customer Reviews

Using primary sources, Voices & Masks focuses on the experience of New England's nineteenth century mill girls and enslaved black women of the antebellum South. The documents and writings of the mill girls reveal how they transformed themselves from being a source of cheap labor for the textile industry to independent women capable of assuming a prominent role in society. Denied writing, enslaved women are shown to have carved out their identities in more hidden or private ways.
