Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
For most of history, women have been confined to their households, and to lives without equal rights or equal opportunities. This volume introduces readers to the women of the suffrage movement, the defining movement for women's rights, especially the right to vote. Primary sources and photographs will show readers firsthand how the challenges and successes of this movement shaped the lives of women across the United States. Readers will also learn about the inequality that still exists for women, and how they can change this injustice in the future.
Created equal -- Setting the stage -- Another fight for freedom -- Coming together -- Susan B. Anthony -- Competing groups -- Small steps -- Into the 20th century -- Picketing and prison -- The 19th Amendment -- The future.
Traces the history of the struggle for the right of women in the United States to vote from the first idea of women's rights and the ties to abolitionism through the nineteenth-century leaders to the passage of the Nineteenth Amendment.
