Female Suffrage

""Female Suffrage"" by Susan Fenimore Cooper is a historical account of the women's suffrage movement in the United States. The book delves into the struggles and challenges faced by women who fought for their right to vote, as well as the societal and cultural attitudes that hindered their progress. Cooper provides a detailed analysis of the key figures and events that shaped the movement, including the Seneca Falls Convention and the efforts of Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton. The book also explores the intersectionality of the suffrage movement with other social justice movements, such as abolitionism and temperance. Through her writing, Cooper highlights the importance of women's suffrage in shaping American democracy and the ongoing fight for gender equality.An adventurous party among us, weary of the old paths, is now eagerly proclaiming theories and doctrines entirely novel on this important subject. The EMANCIPATION OF WOMAN is the name chosen by its advocates for this movement. They reject the idea of all subordination, even in the mildest form, with utter scorn. They claim for woman absolute social and political equality with man. And they seek to secure these points by conferring on the whole sex the right of the elective franchise, female suffrage being the first step in the unwieldy revolutions they aim at bringing about. These views are no longer confined to a small sect.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
