Reviews
"Kelly's work is concerned, above all, with the place of women in the period. The reader will find fascinating sections of the book dealing with domestic tasks and responsibilities, paid and unpaid work, education, courtship and marriage, the transformation of love, private and public sociability, and fashion and consumption. . . This is a well-analyzed, carefully researched study. . . "-Billie Barnes Jensen, San Jose State University, History: The Review of New Books. Fall, 1999., "With complexity and thoughtfulness the author addresses middle-class formation, rural capitalism, separate spheres ideology, and the contours of the affectionate family. . . . This provocative book demands consideration for its creative thinking alone."--Lisa Wilson, Connecticut College, New London, CT. The Journal of American History, September, 2000., "Kelly pushes the boundaries of labor, social, and women's history to challenge a number of core conclusions about the transformation to a market society in the antebellum North. . . . Reading letters and diaries, friendship and commonplace books, and published prose and poetry for what they reveal about both experience and representation, Kelly insists that we take women seriously as actors and thinkers, whose daily lives and the meanings they made of them at once signified and effected important changes in gender and class identities, roles, and relations."-Crista DeLuzio (Southern Methodist University), Modernism/modernity, September 2002, "Kelly pushes the boundaries of labor, social, and women's history to challenge a number of core conclusions about the transformation to a market society in the antebellum North. . . .

Kelly makes a strong case that provincial middle-class formation followed patterns distinct from those discerned by scholars of the urban bourgeoisie. She provides a subtle account of changes over time, of the interactions between ideologies and forms of representation, and of the role of women's own self-fashioning in bringing about social change and class formation."--Christopher Clark, University of Warwick, "With complexity and thoughtfulness the author addresses middle-class formation, rural capitalism, separate spheres ideology, and the contours of the affectionate family. . . . This provocative book demands consideration for its creative thinking alone."-Lisa Wilson, Connecticut College, New London, CT. The Journal of American History, September, 2000., "This rich written legacy first spelled out the superiority of rural life over urban society as a way of clarifying economic change. . .
