  Late nineteenth-century San Francisco was an ethnically diverse but male-dominated society. Within this booming marketplace, some women stepped beyond their roles as wives, caregivers, and homemakers to start businesses that combined family concerns with money-making activities. This work traces the experiences of these women entrepreneurs.
