First edition, first issue. This issue of the first edition of Jackson's treatise on pulmonary tuberculosis is identical to #1908 but for the imprint on the title-page, the linen casing, and the absence of publisher's advertisements at the end of the text. An advertisement for Jackson's American womanhood found in the the publisher's catalog at the end of #1908 indicates that that issue could not have been earlier than 1870, the year the first edition of American womanhood (#1903) was copyrighted. For a discussion of the argument of Consumption, see the annotation to #1908. For biographical data on the author, see the annotation to #1902.

Title and imprint from wrapper. In a sermon delivered on 25 February 1888 at the Happy Thought Cottage, North Adams, Mass., Jackson anticipates a new age for woman—an era in which “the narrowness, the selfishness, the bigotry, the cruel tyranny and the blindness of the past which man has shown to woman will give way to truer, broader views of her rights and privileges, and of the needs which the Republic in all directions has for her duteous exercise of them” (p. 7). To attain this end men and women must first see beyond “sexhood” toward a common “humanhood.” Once this has been understood, “then all other relations will take on shape accordingly. The family, society, business, religion, politics and government will be conducted on a different basis from what they are now.”
