Product Information
An engaging history of women's rights and the legal profession in the nineteenth century Long before Sandra Day O'Connor and Ruth Bader Ginsberg earned their positions on the Supreme Court, they were preceded in their goal of legal excellence by several intrepid trailblazers. In Rebels at the Bar, prize-winning legal historian Jill Norgren recounts the life stories of a small group of nineteenth century women who were among the first female attorneys in the United States. Beginning in the late 1860s, these determined rebels pursued the radical ambition of entering the then all-male profession of law. They were motivated by a love of learning. They believed in fair play and equal opportunity. They desired recognition as professionals and the ability to earn a good living. Through a biographical approach, Norgren presents the common struggles of eight women first to train and to qualify as attorneys, then to practice their hard-won professional privilege. Their story is one of nerve, frustration, and courage. This first generation practiced civil and criminal law, solo and in partnership. The women wrote extensively and lobbied on the major issues of the day, but the professional opportunities open to them had limits. They never had the opportunity to wear the black robes of a judge. They were refused entry into the lucrative practices of corporate and railroad law. Although male lawyers filled legislatures and the Foreign Service, presidents refused to appoint these early women lawyers to diplomatic offices and the public refused to elect them to legislatures. Rebels at the Bar expands our understanding of both women's rights and the history of the legal profession in the nineteenth century. It focuses on the female renegades who trained in law and then, like men, fought considerable odds to create successful professional lives. In this engaging and beautifully written book, Norgren shares her subjects' faith in the art of the possible. In so doing, she ensures their place in history.

Reviews
I have read Ms. Norgren's book with profound gratitude. Being reminded of the brave, intelligent, controversial women who have broke through many barriers a good hundred years before the 1950's has been a fascinating experience., "Rebels at the Bar is not just a story of movement. It is the story of individuals and the individual sacrifice they made in order to become lawyers. Next time I have a student who complains about a B+, I plan to recite one of these stories. Success comes with nerve and sacrifice. These women had both."-Laurie L. Levenson , LA Review of Books, "[A]conscientious history of the country's first female lawyers...The women who went first -- whose stories Norgren so capably tells -- matter deeply to the ones who came after."-Emily Bazelon, The Washington Post, "Shedding light on a little-known chapter of American history and the women who blazed the trail for today's attorneys, this will be most enjoyed by students of history, women's studies, and law, along with interested general readers."-, Library Journal, "Norgren's stories show that the fight for women's equality can never be defined by a single, central goal, for while these women's lives were deeply entwined with the fight for suffrage, their efforts were fueled by and helped to spark reform in a wide range of social justice movements. These biographies, with all their intimate detail and individuality, also reminds us that, while feminist efforts are often characterized as a series of overarching waves, bounded by certain moments in time, the fight for equality is not propelled by some tidal force but by the resolve and practice of women and progressive men who are linked across history by their actions."-, Journal of American Culture, Shedding light on a little-known chapter of American history and the women who blazed the trail for today's attorneys, this will be most enjoyed by students of history, women's studies, and law, along with interested general readers., "Norgren has assembled and rendered accessible an impressive array of pioneering women." - Women's Review of Books, "[A]conscientious history of the country's first female lawyers...The women who went first - whose stories Norgren so capably tells - matter deeply to the ones who came after."-Emily Bazelon, The Washington Post, "Norgren's stories show that the fight for women's equality can never be defined by a single, central goal, for while these women's lives were deeply entwined with the fight for suffrage, their efforts were fueled by and helped to spark reform in a wide range of social justice movements.

With telling detail and lively prose, Jill Norgren profiles the courage, resilience, and challenges of America's first women lawyers. This is a compelling story and essential reading for anyone interested in women's role in legal history."-Deborah L. Rhode,Ernest W. McFarland Professor of Law, Stanford Law School, "Norgren's book will appeal to readers seeking to imagine the lives and work of the earliest women in the legal profession. By portraying women lawyers as ambitious human beings with complicated personal lives and real economic needs, Norgren enables these women's histories to speak to some of our persisting questions about gender, work, family, and professionalism. The book will make a good gift for some aspiring lawyers, helping them see into the struggles of earlier generations and questioning some of their assumptions about the entry of women into the legal profession."-Karen Leroux, Judicature, Rebels at the Baris not just a story of movement.
