Softcover book.
From back cover:
North Andover author and feminist, Elizabeth Stuart Phelps (1844–1911) was an early advocate of clothing reform for women, urging them to burn their corsets. Inspired by the Lawrence Pemberton Mill Tragedy of 1860, Phelps wrote this story based upon one of the actual workers, Asenath S. Martin. It originally appeared in The Atlantic Monthly in 1868.
