Abstract:
"Ruth Underhill's intriguing memoir traces the story of her life, delving into the Depression, the famous anthropologists in her circle, and her fieldwork with a keen ethnographic eye. Underhill describes the Victorian society that first bound her and then ultimately enabled her success as a major figure in anthropology"..
