Susan B. Anthony, Ida Wells, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, and Sojourner Truth are just a few of the women who fought long and hard for the right to vote. They were arrested, jailed, and, sometimes, tortured but did not back down. This was a wonderful book on the history of the feminist push for the right to vote but also the racism that broke apart the movement in America. A few of England's suffragettes were mentioned but it was focused almost exclusively on the fight for the vote in America.
