Summary	<Div>This account of the author's experience at the hands of an ""imperfect state of law"" in early 19th-century England makes a passionate plea for equal justice for women. Largely as a result of this book the passage of the Married Women's Property Act and reform of the English Marriage and Divorce Laws occurred some years later.</div>
