Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Woman's Mission: A Series of Congress Papers on the Philanthropic Work of Women, by Eminent Writers
Moreover, under this second head, the department of Women's Work takes its place for the first time, and both on that account, and by reason of the special regard given to Philanthropy, much of the deeper and more lasting interest excited by this great Exhibition, will, I think, gather round the Section for which this Report has been prepared. It is fitting that the close of the nineteenth century should focus and illustrate in a definite form the share which women have taken in its development, of which, in my humble judgment, the truest and noblest, because the most natural, part, is to be found in philanthropic work.
