Women of achievement
written for the Fireside Schools under the auspices of the Woman's American Baptist Home Mission Society
by Benjamin Brawley
Benjamin G. Brawley begins his volume by praising the progress of African-American women in joining the industrial workforce, in furthering the expansion of organizations for the black community, in playing a primary role in children's education, and in medicine, law, literature, and music. The rest of his volume celebrates five particular women who won distinction as missionaries, artists, educators, and lecturers, as well as Harriet Tubman, who played an active role in leading slaves to freedom in the North.
