These women were wives of missionaries, soldiers and military officers, and government officials who came from the eastern part of the United States. For this edition, Cheryl Foote has provided a new Introduction, which highlights information uncovered since the book's original publication in 1990.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Throughout, Foote does not shy away from sensitive topics, including alcoholism, domestic violence, and prostitution. . . .
