Votes for Women! American Suffragists and the Battle for the Ballot

The book covers the women's suffrage movement in America from the 1848 Seneca Falls Convention through the ratification of the 19th Amendment in 1920. It profiles key figures including Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, and Sojourner Truth, who marched, protested, and sometimes broke the law during the more than eight-decade fight for voting rights. The book also examines the movement's connections to temperance and abolition campaigns.
