Memories of Jane Cunningham Croly, Jenny June is a collection of personal recollections and tributes to the life and legacy of Jane Cunningham Croly, a pioneering American journalist and women's rights advocate who wrote under the pen name Jenny June. The book is written by various authors who knew Croly personally or were influenced by her work, and includes anecdotes, essays, and reflections on her impact on the women's movement in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The book also includes a brief biography of Croly and a selection of her own writings. Overall, Memories of Jane Cunningham Croly, Jenny June provides a unique and intimate glimpse into the life and work of a trailblazing feminist icon.Jane Cunningham Croly left upon the last century an ineffaceable record. For industrious and successful work in journalism she probably had no peer. In a speech before the Woman's Press Club not long since, she said: When a woman has written enough to fill a room, she feels like burning it instead of preserving it in scrap-books. Probably no woman of her day and generation has done more or better work than our Jenny June. No woman had more diversity of gifts; she was equally at home in the editorial chair, or the reportorial office; as a speaker she excelled.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
