Preliminary Bib

Hey fellow bloggers! I know this is a bit backwards, but I realized I never posted my preliminary bib or rhetorical analysis. So here is my preliminary bib and the analysis is soon to come!

Preliminary Bibliography

The bulk of my research has been done via the online databases and the library catalog. The main database that I used was MLA international, but most of what I found is from library books. I would find one book in the catalog, but when I got to that section I would start to look around and end up finding more possible books. The keyword that worked the best was Deborah Sampson and Deborah Gannet (Deborah’s married name). I would like to find more on the representations of women, including images of lady liberty.

Database Keywords and Search Terms
- Sampson, Deborah
- The Female Review
- Mann, Herman
- Gannet, Deborah
- Female warrior
- Female soldier
- Cross-dressing and Early America
