Mary Todd Lincoln
[ send me this paper ]
3 pages in length. Considered to be one of the most colorful -- if not misunderstood -- of all presidential first ladies, Mary Todd Lincoln stood tall for what she believed and ended up paying a high price throughout her entire life for her outspoken and opinionated manner. Indeed, she was instrumental in implementing much positive growth within the country's infrastructure, such as bringing to light the atrocity of slavery, however, she was not that well received from her husband's political constituency on account of her sometimes erratic behavior. Still, it can be argued that Mary Todd Lincoln helped considerably when it came to establishing the United States of America as it exists in contemporary times. The writer discusses the various aspects of the first lady's life. Annotated bibliography lists 10 sources.

Mary Wilkins Freeman
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. Feminist and ghost story writer Mary Wilkins Freeman, a child of poverty, grew up surrounded by the overwhelming sense of failure that permeated from her long-suffering father, whose bouts with depression – brought on by harrowing Civil War episodes – only exacerbated his inability to sustain his family's needs. Ever resourceful, Mary did her best to alleviate the pressure at home by painting and teaching, however, the "family's economic decline" (McFadden, 2000) was in such a fierce downward spiral that even her best attempts were far too inadequate. Writing became her economic mainstay, and she began earning money for her literary efforts as early as 1881; still, this was not to be a help to her destitute family, all of who died during the following two years. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
