(2) YA McCully creates a multilayered biography of Tarbell, crusading journalist of the early twentieth century. The author examines the era's social context for women as well as the culture and importance of print media, particularly the influence of magazines such as McClure's, where Ida made her mark. Just as her subject did, McCully allows readers to draw their own conclusions throughout. Bib., ind.
