Dive into the tumultuous spring of 1850 with us, as we unravel the story of Jane Grey Swisshelm, a fierce abolitionist, feminist, and journalist. Amidst a nation divided by the slavery issue, Swisshelm bravely challenged the status quo, triggering a congressional sex scandal involving none other than Senator Daniel Webster. Discover how her explosive revelations led to her dismissal from the New York Tribune. Explore her autobiography, Half a Century, a riveting account of life on the frontier, the struggle against slavery, and her selfless service as a surgical nurse caring for Union soldiers bearing the brunt of war. (Pamela Nagami, M.D.)
