In 1887 New York City, Nellie Bly has ambitions beyond writing for the ladies pages, but all the editors on Newspaper Row think women are too emotional, respectable and delicate to do the job. But then the New York World challenges her to an assignment she'd be mad to accept and mad to refuse: go undercover as a patient at Blackwell's Island Insane Asylum for Women. For months, rumors have been swirling about deplorable conditions at Blackwell's, but no reporter can get in-that is, until Nellie feigns insanity, gets committed and attempts to survive ten days in the madhouse. Inside, she discovers horrors beyond comprehension. It's an investigation that could make her career-if she can get out to tell it before two rival reporters scoop her story. From USA Today bestselling author Maya Rodale comes a rollicking historical adventure series about the outrageous intrigues and bold flirtations of the most famous female reporter-and a groundbreaking rebel-of New York City's Gilded Age"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Women journalists $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Investigative reporting $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Psychiatric hospitals $v Fiction. 651 0 $a New York (N.Y.) $x History $y 1865-1898 $v Fiction. 600 10 $a Bly, Nellie, $d 1864-1922 $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Biographical fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Action and adventure fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft 830 0 $a Nellie Bly novel ; $v 1. 941 $a 14 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240710060810.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20240127011931.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20231012015156.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010033319.0 952 $l YCPD572 $d 20230214011143.0 952 $l XAPE737 $d 20221206013037.0 952 $l GHPD771 $d 20221103011121.0 952 $l YUPD232 $d 20220906015340.0 952 $l SEPC074 $d 20220906014016.0 952 $l CCPB522 $d 20220901010052.0 952 $l BVPE851 $d 20220728013319.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20220630013305.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20220615010228.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20220427010023.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=4AD925C2C5EF11EC8043B2D34DECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
