These notes and essays supplement the endnotes in  WOMAN LAWYER: THE TRIALS OF CLARA FOLTZ, providing additional source material for the facts and interpretations. Generally the notes follow the order of the book chapters and assume familiarity with the main text.The index to "Woman Lawyer" cites the on-line material by subject. Some are traditional bibliographic notes listing essential references with a few words of critical explanation. But I have also included first person essays and descriptions of people and events that influenced Clara Foltz, but whose stories do not fit with hers, or would extend it unduly. For instance, the Note on Nineteenth Century Newspaper Publishing, (see notes for chapter two) describes in detail the content of the San Diego Bee over a ten day period during Foltz’s editorship.

A biography written over many years has more sources than can be cited even in this format –  especially in a burgeoning new field like women’s legal history. I have tried to cite the main works that influenced my thinking, which may not be exactly the same as all the main works. In a larger sense, virtually everything I have read concerning women’s rights and nineteenth century history is in here somewhere even though not mentioned explicitly. To those whose work deserves more recognition than I have given it here, my sincerest apologies.

Bibliographic Notes and Supplementary Text

These notes and essays supplement the endnotes in WOMAN LAWYER: THE TRIALS OF CLARA FOLTZ, providing additional source material for the facts and interpretations. Generally the notes follow the order of the book chapters and assume familiarity with the main text.The index to "Woman Lawyer" cites the on-line material by subject. Some are traditional bibliographic notes listing essential references with a few words of critical explanation. But I have also included first person essays and descriptions of people and events that influenced Clara Foltz, but whose stories do not fit with hers, or would extend it unduly. For instance, the Note on Nineteenth Century Newspaper Publishing, (see notes for chapter two) describes in detail the content of the San Diego Bee over a ten day period during Foltz’s editorship.


A biography written over many years has more sources than can be cited even in this format – especially in a burgeoning new field like women’s legal history. I have tried to cite the main works that influenced my thinking, which may not be exactly the same as all the main works. In a larger sense, virtually everything I have read concerning women’s rights and nineteenth century history is in here somewhere even though not mentioned explicitly. To those whose work deserves more recognition than I have given it here, my sincerest apologies.
