In this thought-provoking address, delivered during the height of the women's rights movement, Alexander Taggart McGill argues that the present era is an 'age of woman' in which the contributions of women to society are increasingly recognized and valued. He challenges his audience to embrace this new reality and work towards full equality for women in all areas of life.
