"With an updated introduction, the revolutionary book that changed our understanding of gender relations in America is now back in print. Controversial and considered ahead of its time, The Horrors of the Half-Known Life is a startling portrait of male attitudes toward masculinity, women, and sexuality in nineteenth-century America."--BOOK JACKET.
