The Women of the Era and Crime in Wisconsin
A selection of essays and notes discusses gender in crime with statistics from Wisconsin prisons, arguing crime is not strictly male. It surveys male versus female offenders, Milwaukee data, and questions about idleness, literacy, and opportunity as causes, led by Dr Mary Walker. It also includes Washington gossip on Dr Walker and fashion notes from Harper’s Bazar highlighting social habits and attire.
