The Girls is a novel written by Edna Ferber and first published in 1921. The story is set in the early 1900s in Chicago, and follows the lives of two young women, Emma McChesney and her daughter, Jock. Emma is a traveling saleswoman for a clothing company, and Jock is a college student. The novel explores the challenges and opportunities that women faced during this time period, including the struggle for independence and the fight for equal rights. Emma and Jock encounter a variety of characters along the way, including other salespeople, businessmen, and love interests. The Girls is a poignant and humorous portrayal of the lives of women in the early 20th century, and remains a classic of American literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
