A very good to near fine copy in an attractive restoration. The story of the great liner Titanic and its tragedy is really a story about the people who built her and those who were on board for her first and only voyage. Among the most interesting of the passengers was a middle-aged divorced American woman, Helen Churchill Candee. Mrs. Candee, who was 53 in 1912, was at the center of a close-knit group of shipboard friends...all but she were men. The included an American architect, an English "businessman" with a somewhat dubious reputation and Col. Archibald Gracie, who later wrote an excellent first-person account of the sinking. Contemporary and later accounts of the Titanic indicate that despite her "advanced" age she did not in any way lack for the attention of the men in her little group, at least two of whom were clearly smitten with her. Mrs. Candee left the ship in the same lifeboat as the legendary woman who became known as "The Unsinkable Molly Brown," and along with the 704 other survivors, was picked up early on the morning of April 15, 1912 by the rescue ship Carpathia. But it's the "back story" which makes her such a fascinating historical figure, and shows her to be among the most important crusaders and pioneers for women's rights in society. She was born Helen Churchill Hungerford in New York City, the daughter of an affluent manufacturer. At age 21 she married one Edward Candee and with him had two children. Candee proved to be a brutal and abusive spouse, and, after a few unhappy years, he abandoned his family. At the time, such a catastrophe would have probably destroyed many women, left on their own to raise two young children. But Mrs. Candee barely looked back.. I have always inferred that she was glad to be rid of Candee altogether...and she put her writing talents to use as a paid contributor to many important magazines and journals of the day, including Scribner's and The Ladies' Home Journal. And as she continued to write, her sphere of interests began to expand, Initially, her articles were mostly of the kind traditionally reserved for women...home and garden, etiquette, etc., but she soon began to expound about education, child care, and the role of women in society. By 1900, she was a well-established and very well-to-do free-lance writer, and Putnam chose to publish her first book...a daring and in many ways very forward-looking guide for American women who found themselves in the position of needing to work, or perhaps...even just wanting to work. Candee's approach is honest and matter-of-fact...she does not discount the common attitude of the time which looked on most working women as objects of scorn or pity, and gives good advice about how, when and where women can enter the workforce and earn a living, while doing something useful and satisfying. Many of the suggested careers are not surprising: nursing, teaching, household management, cooking, etc. but Candee also explores other possible directions, some of which must have raised some eyebrows at the time: the theater, architecture and design, the law , small retail businesses, editing, real estate, and other fields then mostly reserved for men. One of the most interesting and honest chapters is titled "Hack Writing." Yes, right out on the table, she makes a case for doing what she herself had mastered...writing articles and essays on anything and everything, and taking any writing assignment so long as a pay check came with it. Throughout the book, Candee's tone and style is informal, encouraging, and very conversational. She may have considered herself to be a "hack writer" but she was a great communicator as well. Mrs. Candee's next book was a novel about Oklahoma Territory in which she encouraged settlement there by ambitious men...and women. She relocated to Washington DC and became friendly with both Presidents Roosevelt and Taft, as well as becoming a successful and well-paid interior decorator and designer (one the the careers she'd discussed in her first book). In 1912, she was in Europe doing research for what would become her most successful and reprinted volume, The Tapestry Book, when she received a telegram saying her son had been injured in an accident. She then decided to sail home the quickest way she could, which turned out to be on the maiden voyage of the Titanic. When she entered the lifeboat, she stumbled and broke her ankle, which did not keep her from doing her share of rowing for the next three hours. For some months after, she had to walk with a cane, but that did not stop her from joining a Women's Suffrage march in D.C. in early 1913. And Candee did not slow down, even as she approached an age where most people at the time were considered old. During WW1, age nearly 60, she served as a Red Cross nurse in Rome and Milan. Some reports have stated that one of her patients was Ernest Hemingway...perhaps she gave him some encouragement in making writing his career. In the 1920s, she became fascinated with Asia and traveled to Japan, Formosa, Cambodia, China etc. and published two excellent books about the region, Angkor the Magnificent (1924) and New Journeys in Old Asia (1927). And that was not all...even as she approached 80 she continued to write...and write well...for the National Geographic, and supervised the very successful reissue of The Tapestry Book in 1935. At long last, her health began to fail but she continued to live a full and satisfying life until 1949, when she died at age 90 at her summer home in Maine. Although often reprinted in POD and other editions (and despite claims that the book was a "best seller"), the first edition of How Women May Earn a Living is genuinely rare. This is the first copy we have seen in our many combined decades of searching.

  • Helen Churchill Candee – an Introduction
    Helen Churchill Candee – An Introduction Helen Churchill Candee was born in 1858 as Helen Churchill (her mother’s maiden name) Hungerford of New York. Her father was a successful merchant, and Helen grew up in relative comfort both there and in Connecticut where the family moved shortly thereafter. More important than the physical provisions prosperity allowed, she was exposed to ideas and stories, music and art, history and culture, in ways unlikely to have been possible had she lived a generation before, or anywhere else. Helen started her formal education in one of America’s first kindergartens, then attended several girls’ boarding schools of the sort only available to a certain quality of family – and even then mostly only those in New England. Before she was a teenager she spoke and wrote multiple languages, was schooled in grace and etiquette, and probably knew more history and literature than a majority of adult men in the nation at the time. She was particularly inspired, according to one diary entry, by an event at which Charles Dickens read aloud from one of his works. How many of you have heard Dickens live? My point exactly. She was born into the right sort of family in the right part of the country at a pretty good time to become what she became. While her life was not without suffering or tragedy, neither did she rise from rags and neglect to riches and fame. Upbringing mattered, as did education and opportunity. None of which detracts from her choices, hard work, or natural abilities, of course.

    AN INTANGIBLE CLAIM: OKLAHOMA TERRITORY AND THE VICTORIAN DIVORCE CRISIS by JENNIFER DENISE LYNCH A thesis submitted to the graduate faculty in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS IN HISTORY University of Central Oklahoma Graduate College Spring 2016 !i Preface This study focuses on the cultural phenomenon that occurred in the United States known as the Victorian Divorce Crisis, and the communities known as “Divorce Mills,” which were often blamed for the situation. The divorce mill that developed in Oklahoma Territory’s capital city of Guthrie played a role in the spreading panic, as well as encouraging a dialogue about divorce’s increased presence and bringing an end to the crisis. The unique situation in Guthrie was able to happen because two months prior to the opening for settlement of the Unassigned Lands, later becoming Oklahoma Territory, with the Land Rush in April of 1889, the release of A Report on Marriage and Divorce in the United States, 1867 to 1886, brought divorce statistics to the populace for the first time. While other divorce mills had thrived prior to Guthrie, the report brought national attention to the havens and the issue of migratory divorce. The debate that fueled the Divorce Crisis was still in its infancy in the 1880s, but with the growth of a mill in Oklahoma Territory and an increase in public knowledge about divorce statistics, its soon escalated into a national movement among factions either for or against the institution of divorce. The escalation eventually led to the meeting of the National Congress on Uniform Divorce Laws in 1906, which signified an end of the Victorian Divorce Crisis because of the movement’s inability to become nationally adopted.

Ahead of its timeBy Kindle CustomerTalk about being a front- runner! This is a well-written, fascinating glimpse of another time when a few women were testing their wings. Women were just beginning to look outside the traditional roles and to seek work outside the home. Single mothers and widows were scrambling to make meager livings. This book surely gave them hope and confidence. It's detailed and inspiring and will make you realize that we've come a long way, baby! But we have farther to go. The author was not only the first professional interior decorator, but she was also a novelist (the first historical romance written by an American woman about the wild west), and a survivor of the Titanic! Quite a woman. Excerpt from How Women May Earn a Living I shall never employ a woman in a position of confidence and trust again, is what the head of a large firm said with some bitterness twice I have trained a woman into a ten thousand dollar position, and each time I have been thrown back by the woman saying with a blushing face that she has met the man of her choice.
