Praise for The Selected Papers of Jane Addams Volume 3:“Will become the indispensable work to understand Jane Addams and Hull-House.”—Allen F. Davis, author of American Heroine: The Life and Legend of Jane Addams“Breathtaking in its depth and detail. In this exciting volume, readers meet Addams as she begins her most important life projects: the founding of Hull-House; popularizing pragmatic democracy in a changing world; and her work for peace and international understanding.”—Wendy E. Chmielewski, coeditor of Jane Addams and the Practice of DemocracyPraise for The Selected Papers of Jane Addams Volume 2:“A fascinating collection, illuminating Jane Addams’s transition to an independent adult life dedicated to social reform.
