Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Mary Wollstonecraft's Original Stories: With Five Illustrations
The awful reality of Mrs. Mason proves that Mary Wollstonecrafi, had she known her own power and kept her mental serenity, might have been a great novelist. Mrs. Mason was the first and strongest British Matron. She came before Mrs. Proudie, and also, it is interesting to note, before Sir Willoughby Patteme. But she was, I fear, an accident; for there is nothing like her in our author's one experiment. In adult fiction, The Wrongs of Woman.
