Stories from Suffragette City edited by Fiona Davis & M. J. Rose

"This book presented by thirteen authors gave me pause to rethink the lives of woken and born suffragettes, men and women who would have looked like anyone else I might have smiled and said hello to. Surely the average suffragette was supported by either her loving family, proud husband or supportive employer as she determinedly met with others as a small part of a united body from States ratified and yet to be taking on a growing fight of over 75 years by 1915 would be in the excitement preparing that October to meet at the biggest parade NYC ever saw. I could not help but be proud and appreciative had these women not only been earnest but single minded in their will to allow every women loved by a supporter or not to be an individual working thinking women donning banners declaring they are capable of raising and educating boys while living amongst decision making men just before the November election." - C. Lucas

4/4 stars.
