Synopsis
''Rosen has broken entirely new ground in what will surely remain the definitive study of urban prostitution in America for many years to come.''--TLS, Written by the historical editor of the highly acclaimed Maimie Papers , The Lost Sisterhood describes both the women who chose prostitution as a acreer and the middle-class reformers who sought to eradicate prostitution from the landscape of urban America. What these women thought, how they felt, and where they fit into a rapidly changing society combine in this richly textured description of a neglected aspect of women's history, one that also illuminates the origins of contemporary attitudes toward both prostitution and women in general.
