(2) 4-6 Christensen touches on Bly's early life (she was born at the end of the Civil War) and the beginnings of her career, but it's her around-the-world journey that forms the literary and visual climax of the story. A final montage centering the adult Bly among the women and children who served as subjects of her exposés and later crusades reminds readers of her powerful voice and of those "who had no friend but Nellie Bly." Chronology, videography. Bib.
