Helen Barrett Montgomery (1861-1934) was a social reformer a Baptist luminary, and a prominent intellectual of the American women's ecumenical missionary movement. In this definitive biography, Kendal Mobley explores Montgomery's early family influences, her education and spiritual development, and her relationship with other notable individuals of the era, including Susan B. Anthony. As Mobley points out, Montgomery represented the cutting edge of a global movement for women's emancipation in her proclamation that Christianity gave women equal spiritual and social status with men.
