Strength Without Compromise: Womanly Influence and Political Identity in Turn-of-the-Twentieth Century Rural Upstate New York

By Teri Gay
"Inspired by the true story of Lucy Allen, Chloe Sisson, and the Political Equality Club of small-town Easton, New York, this book focuses on the quest for female political equality as carried out by suffragists in the rural areas of upstate New York at the turn of the 20th century. Embracing their womanliess for their noble cause, these ladies organized to educate and inspire each other, their communities, and New York State about the wisdom of including women in the voting electorate."  (Publisher Description)  Check Our Catalog
