Notable Women of Modern China

During a stay of some months in China during 1909, Margaret E. Burton had an opportunity to see the educational system of the country for women. She was greatly impressed, and compiled profiles of some of the most notable female figures she came to know. It was a time of an emerging New China in which women were trying to break free of centuries of tradition and enslavement by means of education. This book details their efforts to mould both their personal future and their country's.
