Book excerpt: Helen Keller's never-before-collected writings for magazines and newspapers are reproduced in Byline of Hope, with introductions by Towson University journalism professor Beth A. Haller. Keller's articles for Ladies' Home Journal, The Atlantic Monthly, The New York Times and the 1930s periodical Home show the passion and scope of her thinking on topics like feminism, socialism and eduction. Readers can follow Keller's development from her early work with its Victorian era diction and charm and watch as her thinking evolves on issues of the day. Much of what Keller wrote is still timely in the 21st century. Byline of Hope shows how truly brilliant and far-seeing this woman was.
