Elizabeth Wilson Women Rights
First Edition A Scriptural View of Woman's Rights and Duties incisive early critique of American property and inheritance laws biased against wives and widows- 1849
WILSON Elisabeth. A Scriptural View of Woman's Rights and Duties in All the Important Relations of Life. Philadelphia: Published by William S. Young 1849. First Edition. 376 pages. This impassioned defense of women's rights faults the oppressive role of patriarchal church and society values. Challenging prominent male biblical scholars Wilson asserted that male and female were created by God as equal co-sovereigns over creation and thus biblical patriarchs and matriarchs exercised equal authority within the marriage relationship. Wilson's most striking example is Abigail who distributed household property an extravagant gift of dressed sheep and other food to David against her husband Nabal's wishes 1 Samuel 25. Wilson uses this example to argue that the bible supports the equal administration of marital property between husband and wife; a radical proposition in 1849 when only 12 US States allowed women to own property. A rare and striking early text arguing for women's rights. unknown books

The 2nd title with novice golf pro Lee Ofsted and homicide detective Graham Sheldon. SIGNED COPY signature only by the author on the title page. "Exhibiting admirable follow-through the authors of A Wicked Slice bring back young golf-pro/sleuth Lee Ofsted in a classic cozy that draws extra appeal from its golf-tour milieu. After a record opening-day round at New Mexico's Cottonwood Creek Country Club Lee is out front in the Women's Professional Golf League High Desert tournament. But the twinge of tennis elbow that bothered her on the 17th hole flares after she attempts CPR on a man she finds on the course apparently the victim of a lightning strike. Unable to save Ted Guthrie the antagonistic president of Cottonwood Creek's board of directors Lee can't swing a club either. Withdrawing from the tournament she goes to work with the TV crew covering the tour and is thus on the scene when venerable sports announcer Boyd Marriner dies in the cafeteria. Using her TV role as an investigative cover Lee probes both deaths joined in her sleuthing by her boyfriend Graham Sheldon a California cop who comes to visit. The pursuit of a killer leads to nighttime danger on the high desert golf course before the game and winning Lee can resolve the puzzles of both the homicides and her heart." -- PUBLISHERS WEEKLY.
