About this title: In 1908 the Supreme Court unanimously upheld an Oregon law that set a ten-hour limit on the workdays of women in factories and laundries. Using lawyers' briefs, arguments over single-sex protective laws, and other major court decisions, Nancy Woloch examines a moment in which constitutional history, women's history, and progressive politics converged.

"I skimmed most of this book, and we spent a bit of time going over the information in class, but I'd like to go back and read it better. The whole book focuses on labor laws, and the constitutional cases that arise from that. Really interesting to watch the progression of labor laws, and the shift from pro-business to pro-labor."
