Ten Days in a Mad-House is an 1887 work by American journalist Elizabeth Seaman. Originally published as a series of articles for the New York World, the book contains Seamans ground-breaking exposé of an asylum which she infiltrated by feigning insanity. Ten Days in a Mad-House led to a grand jury investigation and increased funding for the Department of Public Charities and Corrections, as well as an entirely new style of investigative journalism. Elizabeth Cochrane Seaman (1864-1922), also known as Nellie Bly, was an American industrialist, journalist, charity worker, and inventor famous for her 72-day trip around the world in the footsteps of the fictional Phileas Fogg. Other notable works by this author include: Six Months in Mexico (1888), The Mystery of Central Park (1889), and Nellie Blys Book: Around the World in Seventy-two Days (1890). Read & Co. Books is republishing this classic journalistic work in a new edition complete with an introductory biography by Frances E. Willard and Mary A. Livermore.
