This meticulously prepared print republication allows readers to experience firsthand the insights and observations of a remarkable woman who navigated the corridors of power and chronicled a pivotal period in United States history. "The Olivia Letters" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in political history, social life, and the experiences of women in the late 19th century.
