Michael,
One of the points on which your paper might focus is why the
organization chose to call itself the "Woman's (not Women's) Christian
Temperance Union. The best book on this topic is Ian Tyrrell's WOMAN'S
WORLD/WOMAN'S EMPIRE. I hope this book will encourage you to broaden your
focus beyond the United States. See also:
Ruth Bordin, WOMAN AND TEMPERANCE
Mary Earhart, FRANCES WILLARD
Barbara Epstein, THE POLITICS OF DOMESTICITY
Ruth Bordin, FRANCES WILLARD
Nancy Cott, THE GROUNDING OF MODERN AMERICAN FEMINISM, early chs.
