Description: "Because scholars have traditionally only examined the efforts of American suffragettes in relation to electoral politics, the history books have missed the story of what these women sought to achieve. This book tells the story of how these women made an indelible mark on American history in fields ranging from education to art, science, publishing, and social activism"--Provided by publisher.
