Haines, Jennie Day, comp. Sovereign woman versus mere man: a medley of quotation. [**]$1. Elder.
In these well chosen quotations from writers of both sexes and many ages the compiler has compared and contrasted man and woman in various phases and stages of their being. The left hand page applies to sovereign woman, the one facing it to mere man, and they are presented as heroines and heroes, spinsters and bachelors, wives and husbands, and as related to love, matrimony, fads, fame, ways, work, religion and many other things. The marginal decorations and general get up make the volume an attractive gift-book.
[*] “The quotations, which are of very miscellaneous authorship, possess more than a superficial aptness, and there is a refreshing absence of that attempt at epigrammatic smartness which spoils most books of this type.”
