"I read this along with Women Making Music by Bowers and Tick, which has a great overview of the subject of the history of women in music. They really supplement each other.
This book contains primary source material that greatly enriches the subject of women in music. The most interesting (and disturbing) part to me were the letters to Fanny Mendelssohn from her father and brother, demonstrating how powerful societal expectations were in keeping women from contributing as much as they might have."
