Girls who Went Wrong
Hapke examines how writers attempted to turn an outcast into a heroine in literature otherwise known for its puritanical attitude toward the fallen woman. She focuses on how these authors (all male) expressed late-Victorian conflicts about female sexuality. Hapke reevaluates Crane's Maggie: A Girl of the Streets, discusses neglected prostitution fiction by authors Joaquin Miller, Edgar Fawcett, and Harold Frederic, and surveys progressive white slave novels.

The New King Arthur
Edgar Fawcett (1847-1904) was an American novelist and poet. Fawcett was born in New York, and spent much of his life there. Educated at Columbia College, he obtained an A. B. there in 1867 and his M. A. three years later. At Columbia, he was a member of the Fraternity of Delta Phi. His best known novels, such as 1873's Purple and Fine Linen and 1898's New York, were satirical studies of New York high society. Fawcett also wrote a parody of the King Arthur legends entitled The New King Arthur: An Opera Without Music (1885), as well as numerous works for children, such as 1872's Short Poems for Short People. His volumes of verse included 1884's Song and Story and 1891's Songs of Doubt and Dream. His verse was frequently anthologized. Other works include: Asses' Ears (1871), Fantasy and Passion (1878), Sixes and Sevens (1881), Rutherford (1884), The Confessions of Claud (1887), Women Must Weep (1891), The Ghost of Guy Thyrle (1895) and An Innocent Anglomaniac (1904).
