In their reporting of the city's Draft Riots later that year, she explains, New York newspapers fixated on "a fantasized black uprising," rather than the "very real white one" that targeted African Americans and Irish immigrants alike (36). Frost's sharp examination of press releases and postcards shows how this Beauty-"the perfect realization of Victorian American womanhood"-was held captive "by a white Northern gaze" (79,78).
