520 2  "Enlivened with profiles and vignettes of some of the 
       remarkable people whose histories inform this study, 
       Stepping Lively in Place shows how single, free women 
       navigated life in a busy slave-encrusted river-port town 
       before, during, and after the Civil War. It examines how 
       single women in one city (including prostitutes, entre-
       preneurs, and elite plantation ladies) coped with life 
       unencumbered, or unprotected, by husbands. The book pays 
       close attention to the laws affecting Southern gender and 
       sociocultural traditions, focusing especially on how the 
       town's single women maneuvered adroitly but guardedly 
       within the legal arena in which they lived. Joyce Linda 
       Broussard looks at all types of single women--black and 
       white, law-abiding and criminal--including spinsters, 
       widows, divorcees, and abandoned women. She demonstrates 
       the nuanced degrees to which these women understood that 
       the legal, cultural, and social traditions of their place 
       and time could alternately constrain or empower them, 
       often achieving thereby a considerable amount of 
       independence as women"--Provided by publisher.
