FRAZER (Elizabeth).
A Woman and Her Money.

“One of the first books written by a woman for the female investor” (Dennistoun & Goodman). Originating as a series of financial articles in the Saturday Evening Post, the book aimed to counter the financial victimisation of women which was prevalent at the time. Frazer cautioned against making naive speculative investments on the recommendation of unscrupulous financiers, and urged women to instead educate themselves as to how best to allocate their money.
