Beecher is a comprehensive treatise on the role of women as mothers and educators written in the late 19th century. The text examines the responsibilities of women in nurturing and educating future generations, while simultaneously critiquing the rising movement for women's suffrage and the implications it has for women's traditional roles. Rooted in the socio-political context of its time, the work aims to address misconceptions about women's rights and duties within the family structure. At the start of the book, Beecher dedicates her work to the ministers of religion and emphasizes the growing concern about the "woman movement" that she perceives as detrimental to family values and health. She expresses the need for women to be better trained as educators and health instructors in order to fulfill their roles effectively. The introduction sets the stage for her arguments against woman suffrage, which she believes would pull women away from their primary responsibilities at home, diverting attention from their crucial roles as mothers and educators. Beecher's perspective is shaped by her commitment to traditional family structures, advocating for reform through education rather than through political activism.
