![]() "Largely because Kaledin, as a feminist scholar, takes her subject seriously and does not see Clover mainly as an interesting new 'angle' on the Adams family, she has written a worthwhile book about the opportunities and limitations of a talented woman in the late nineteenth century. It underscores the fundamental tensions between head and heart that lie deeply embedded in American culture."- Journal of American History ![]() "Kaledin's excellent study combines intellectual history, the history of education, and family and women's history. Kaledin is very sensitive to class as well as to gender issues the book is also a study in class and its discontents."-Carol Hurd Green, coeditor, Notable American Women: The Modern Period
