Women of the French Revolution by Winifred Stephens Whale (1870 - 1944) LibriVox (Excerpt) One aspect of this subject of revolutionary women, their connection with the secret societies of the day I have purposely ignored. It is obscure and highly controversial. Unfortunately, though these societies have been much, written about, and especially of late, it has often been in a partisan spirit. This book will constantly deal with parties, but I trust not in the spirit of a partisan.Of the three methods of treating this subject, the strictly chronological method, the biographical, and a classification according to the play of ideas and the modes and fields of action, I have chosen the last. Though it has its drawbacks, one of which is some slight repetition, it seems to me that this method gives the clearest impression of the movement as a whole, and of the part women played in it. - Summary by Celine Major Whale Rider Kim Gilio True stories of one woman’s faith journey that took her in and out of the belly of a whale. Well, not literally of course...but it sure felt like it at times.
