Is it I? A book for every man.
Storer, Horatio Robinson
Sexual ethics
This elegantly written little book, unexceptionable in tone and
singularly free from pedantry, discusses the subject of criminal
abortion in all its bearings. The moralist and politico-economist
will find much that will awaken thought, if not arouse to action,
while the very large class to whom it is addressed cannot fail to be
convinced—and may we not hope _converted_?—by the stern logic of its
well put scientific truths.—_American Homœopathic Review, Detroit,
Michigan._

The evidence adduced by Dr. Storer is unanswerable. Every married
man and woman in the land knows its truth. He does not exaggerate,
but rather under-estimates the evil; and were it possible to make
extracts from a work of this kind in a newspaper, any page out of
the hundred would blanch many very respectable married people’s
cheeks with righteous shame. It is the best antidote to quack
pills and vile “French inventions” that has been issued within the
century.—_Waukegan Gazette._
“A PLEA FOR JUSTICE TO WOMEN.”

Opinions of the Press.
The _Independent_ says:
The work of Mrs. Dall, in addition to its eloquent and forcible
appeals, abounds in statistical facts and figures of great interest
and value to those who are laboring in behalf of the elevation of
woman. Her statements are as convincing to the intellect as they are
suggestive to the imagination. Her zeal in the cause is justified by
her ability in its support. As a woman she does honor to a movement
which numbers among its advocates so many of the finest minds and
noblest hearts of the age in the other sex.
She has taken hold of a great subject, one that is more and more
engaging the attention of the civilized world, and her investigations
and conclusions show a grasp of thought which many a man might well
envy.—_Congregationalist._
The marked ability with which the author advocates her cause, should
and will command for her the respectful consideration of even her
opponents.—_Home Journal._
It must be acknowledged that the author has made many strong
points—points that it would be difficult to gainsay.—_Toledo Blade._
An eloquent and sensible plea for justice to women. It deserves to be
read, and will be read, for it is too interesting to escape even the
idle and thoughtless.—_New York Evening Post._
The cause of Equal Rights can no longer be accused of dulness. Mrs.
Dall has taken from it that reproach. There is satisfaction in seeing
her clear common sense walk straight and calm to its mark, which is
justice; and more than satisfaction in the grace of words and the
beauty of quotations with which she adorns her going.—_Worcester Spy._
