It is commonly believed that women's entry into the political realm
is a recent phenomenon. Originally published in 1992, Belle
Moskowitz shatters that myth, restoring to history the career of a
remarkable woman who achieved unprecedented influence and power in
American politics many decades before the contemporary era. As
political advisor to Alfred E. Smith, four-term governor of New
York and presidential candidate. Moskowitz played a crucial role in
both state and national politics throughout the 1920s. Elisabeth
Israels Perry, who is Moskowitz's granddaughter, has thoroughly
searched through private and public records to document Moskowitz's
career, drawing as well on the reminiscences of Moskowitz's
daughter Miriam Israels Gabo. This outstanding biography was
co-winner of the New York State Historical Association Manuscript
Prize in 1987.
