Her articles detailing the Dickensian conditions and suffering of patients at the insane asylum on Blackwell's Island (\"Behind Asylum Bars\" \u0026amp; \"Inside The Mad-House\") would shock and outrage readers, propelling massive change in the care of the mentally ill. Almost overnight, Nellie Bly became a person to be reckoned with. In Vol. III of THE NELLIE BLY COLLECTION, we find Nellie pioneering the field of investigative journalism. Often going undercover, her follow-up articles would focus on hard-hitting topics such as the trafficking of unwanted infants, conditions of low-wage workers in factories and exposing a crooked lobbyist offering to bribe state politicians. Always a champion of women, Nellie additionally profiles the wives of presidential candidates and first ladies, and interviews Belva Lockwood, the first woman to appear on official ballots as a Presidential candidate.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Tri Fritz\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 8369404022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798369404027\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Xlibris Us\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/22\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 460\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.82lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.19d","brand":"Tri Fritz","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46199214440703,"sku":"9798369404027","price":52.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b92379e3-078b-41b4-8b49-b1d61cd47ac8.jpg?v=1727925390","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-nellie-bly-collection-tri-fritz-9798369404027","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
