About The Book

Frequently recognized as one of the most influential women of the century, and considered a heroine by nurses and social workers around the globe, Jane Addams had to struggle long and hard to earn her place in history. Born in 1860 on the eve of the Civil War, she lived during pivotal times when women were only beginning to create new roles for themselves (ironically building on the Victorian ideal of women as ministering angels).

Focusing on her metamorphosis from a frail, small-town girl into a woman who inspired hundreds of others to join her movement to serve, the poor, A Useful Woman, delves into the mysterious ailments and other troubles young Jane faced. Examining for the first time Jane’s physical and mental health and the effect of her father’s remarriage after her mother’s death, biographer Gioia Diliberto directly links Addam’s proneness to depression to her inability to conform to the mores of her time. Also, for the first time, she examines Add’s two marriage-like relationships with women.
