Woman's Suffrage - Paperback

by Joanne Weisman Deitch (Author)

Compelling firsthand accounts and primary source documents underpin the introduction to U.S. history in History Compass' popular Research American History series. In 1920, the 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution gave women the right to vote. The trials and achievements of those in the movement for voting rights for women are expressed in the Report of the 1848 Seneca Falls Convention, a speech by Sojourner Truth, letters, journals, newspaper accounts, poetry, songs, and photographs.
