Woman's Worth and Worthlessness: The Complement to "A New Atmosphere. New York, Harper and Brothers, 1872. First edition. Octavo. 291, 8 [publisher's ads.] pp. Publisher's original decorative green cloth boards, stamped in gilt and black on front cover and spine. Back cover blind stamped with publishers imprint. Chocolate endpapers, previous owner's small name on blank front free endpaper, extremities rubbed on tips and top and bottom of spine. Overall, a very good or better copy by one of the first women political correspondents in Washington D. C. and a leader of the anti-suffragist movement. Born in Hamilton, Massachusetts, originally named Gail Hamilton, AKA Mary Abigail Dodge (1833-1896) was an essayist, journalist, and anti-suffragist. Her essays were published in The Atlantic Monthly, among other publications, and collected in multiple volumes. While Dodge believed in education and equal employment opportunities for all, she thought that suffrage would prove an enormous burden for women, whose proper role was within the family sphere. In the Preface to the present volume, she writes, "Looking but casually at Woman Suffrage, I regarded it with indifference. From a careful survey I can not [sic] regard it but with apprehension. The more closely I scrutinize it, the more formidable seems to me the revolution which it implies, the more onerous seem the duties which it imposes," A very good copy of a scarce first edition of Mary Abigail Dodge's collection of anti-suffragist essays arguing that any reform in women's lives must first occur in the home, as opposed to a more direct approach to political influence.
