Yo wa ikanishite beikoku shōjo to kekkonseshiya
Rare Books
Letters written by Kaneko Kiichi to Josephine Conger from 1904 to 1905, while the author was a student at Harvard University. Conger and Kaneko were later married and moved to Girard, Kansas, where they co-founded The Socialist Woman (renamed The Progressive Woman) magazine. Kaneko's letters incluide his thoughts on literature, the status of women, American culture, love and marriage. He also responded to many of the clippings of Conger's writing that she had sent him as well as referencing his own publications in the US and Japan. The English originals are transcribed with their Japanese translations on facing pages. The publication was intended to help Japanese students learning English. Although Conger's letters are not included, this collection offers a rare glimpse into the courtship of a mixed race couple during a period when Asian-Anglo marriages were outlawed in many states.

The female frontier : a comparative view of women on the prairie and the Plains
Rare Books
Until the mid 1970s, frontierswomen appeared in histories of the American West only as one-dimensional stereotypes or not at all. The intention of this study is to demonstrate not only that women did play highly significant and multifaceted roles in the development of the American West but also that their lives as settlers displayed fairly consistent patterns which transcended geographic sections of the frontier. Further, the author maintains that these shared experiences and responses of frontierswomen constituted a "female frontier." In other words, frontierswomen's responsibilities, life styles, and sensibilities were shaped more by gender considerations than by region.
