Twenty years at Hull-House, with autobiographical notes
by Jane Addams
(
Book
)
124 editions published between 1910 and 2010 in 3 languages and held by 4,353 WorldCat member libraries worldwide Originally published in 1910, this was Jane Addams' most successful book. Now regarded as a classic of American social history, this first annotated edition is issued on the occasion of the Hull-House centennial. One of the most important books ever written in the United States, Twenty Years at Hull-House remains a classic because it addresses large questions of human destiny and social justice in terms that are as relevant today as they were one hundred years ago.'Kathryn Kish Sklar, author of Catherine Beecher: A Study in American Domesticity

48 editions published between 1912 and 2012 in English and held by 1,374 WorldCat member libraries worldwide "The following material, much of which has been published in McClure's Magazine, was written, not from the point of view of the expert, but because of my own need for a counter-knowledge to a bewildering mass of information which came to me through the Juvenile Protective Association of Chicago. The reports which its twenty field officers daily brought to its main office adjoining Hull House became to me a revelation of the dangers implicit in city conditions and of the allurements which are designedly placed around many young girls in order to draw them into an evil life. As head of the Publication Committee, I read the original documents in a series of special investigations made by the Association on dance halls, theatres, amusement parks, lake excursion boats, petty gambling, the home surroundings of one hundred Juvenile Court children and the records of four thousand parents who clearly contributed to the delinquency of their own families

Women at the Hague : the international peace congress of 1915
by Jane Addams
(
Book
)
7 editions published between 2002 and 2003 in English and held by 131 WorldCat member libraries worldwide "In 1915, shortly after the outbreak of World War I, more than twelve hundred women representing twelve nations journeyed to The Netherlands to plead for peace at The Hague. At this first International Congress of Women they called for "continuous mediation" until peace was restored, and two delegations met with representatives of the warring governments. Although they did not stop the war, their proposals are still used as guidelines for most diplomatic negotiations between hostile nations." "Three highly talented, progressive women led the American delegation. Jane Addams, the cofounder of Hull-House in Chicago, won the 1931 Nobel Peace Prize for her career of public service and advocacy for peace. Emily G. Balch, a distinguished sociologist who taught at Wellesley College and was the longtime International Secretary of the later-founded Women's International League for Peace and Freedom, also was honored in 1946 with the Nobel Peace Prize. Alice Hamilton, a medical investigator and social activist, was the first woman to join the faculty of Harvard University." "Women at The Hague is the firsthand report by these three women of their mission for peace. With an illuminating introduction by University of Nebraska scholar Mary Jo Deegan, recognized by the American Sociological Association in 2002 for her distinguished scholarly career, this new edition of a valuable historical document will be of interest to students of women's studies, history, and international relations."--BOOK JACKET
