Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:



This is how history should be told to kids--with photos, illustrations, and captivating storytelling.

From Newbery Honor medalist Susan Campbell Bartoletti and in time to celebrate the 100th anniversary of women's suffrage in America comes the page-turning, stunningly illustrated, and tirelessly researched story of the little-known DC Women's March of 1913.

Bartoletti spins a story like few others--deftly taking readers by the hand and introducing them to suffragists Alice Paul and Lucy Burns. Paul and Burns met in a London jail and fought their way through hunger strikes, jail time, and much more to win a long, difficult victory for America and its women.

Includes extensive back matter and dozens of archival images to evoke the time period between 1909 and 1920.

Includes bibliographical references and index.

Under Arrest! -- A big idea -- Parade! -- Boycott! -- Victory!.

"A history of the iconic first women's march in 1913 and the suffragists who led the way to passing the 19th amendment."-- Provided by publisher.
