Description

Roses and Radicals: The Epic Story of How American Women Won the Right to Vote' by Susan Zimet tells the story of the women's suffrage movement in the United States, from the first women's rights convention in 1848 to the passage of the 19th Amendment in 1920. The book highlights the struggles and triumphs of women like Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Susan B.
