Other Things Being Equal is a novel written by Emma Wolf that was first published in 1892. The story is set in New York City during the late 19th century and follows the life of the main character, Rachel Minchin, a young woman who is determined to become a successful lawyer despite the societal expectations and limitations placed on women during that time. Rachel's journey is filled with obstacles and challenges, including sexism, discrimination, and personal struggles. She faces opposition from her family, friends, and colleagues, who do not believe that a woman can succeed in such a male-dominated field. However, Rachel perseveres and eventually becomes a successful lawyer, proving that gender should not be a barrier to success.The novel also explores the themes of love, family, and social class. Rachel falls in love with a young lawyer named Philip Boynton, but their relationship is complicated by their different social backgrounds and the expectations placed on them by their families. Rachel's relationship with her own family is also strained due to their disapproval of her career aspirations.Overall, Other Things Being Equal is a powerful and inspiring story of a woman's determination to overcome societal barriers and pursue her dreams. It is a timeless classic that continues to resonate with readers today.It was just three, --the time stated as the limit of his office-hours; but when Ruth entered the handsome waiting-room, two or three patients were still awaiting their turns. Seated in one of the easy-chairs, near the window, was an aristocratic-looking woman, whom Ruth recognized as a friend of one of her Christian friends, and with whom she had a speaking acquaintance.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
