Most people remember Jane Addams as the founder of Hull House, but her devotion to social causes extended far beyond her settlement house's programs for the poor. As a suffragist, civil rights worker, and political reformer, she would be celebrated as the "Angel of Democracy," and "Miss Kind Heart." Yet her pacifist views during World War I would earn her a reputation as "unpatriotic," a "traitor," and even the "most dangerous woman in America." Black and white archival photographs. Afterword. Source notes. Bibliography.
