The fourth volume of the Woman in All Ages and in All Countries series covers Egypt, Babylonia, Israel, Persia, India, China and Japan: marriage customs and property, seclusion and its variations, the women recorded in scripture and epic, and the household arrangements underneath. The framing is unmistakably of 1907, and the material it gathers is not easily found elsewhere.
