Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Work-a-Day Girl: A Study of Some Present Day Conditions The chapters of which this book is composed were written from time to time during a period of about three years, on order for magazines. This means that they are journalistic rather than academic. The editorial orders came to the author not because she had any special knowledge of the subjects nor any special advantage for observation and investigation, but solely because certain editors believed her sympathetic and candid, and told her to "look into" some phases of the work-a-day girls relations to society. It is hoped, therefore, that the book may be judged not as the work of one speaking with authority, but as the observations of one who can claim scarcely any other qualification for the task than an exceeding great interest in it, and an "eagerness to know" which has made her study of it at least fairly comprehensive. The range of reading covered in the preparation of these chapters may without exaggeration be called enormous; and the range of personal interviews and investigations was not less.
