About This Item
Written entirely by Gilman, The Forerunner featured serialized novels, short fiction, essays, articles, and verse; and was published by her with the aim of stirring one to action "upon the Progress of Women". This volume contains the first appearance of the feminist novel *Benigna Machiavelli*, and the extended critical essay *Social Ethics*. Both the novel and essay appear here serialized and complete in twelve issues (January-December, 1914). A scarce copy in original boards. According to information provided by Gilman's estate, less than 200 hardcover copies of each volume of the Forerunner were printed.
