This book is part of the TREDITION CLASSICS series. The creators of
this series are united by passion for literature and driven by the
intention of making all public domain books available in printed
format again - worldwide. At tredition we believe that a great book
never goes out of style. Several mostly non-profit literature
projects provide content to tredition. To support their good work,
tredition donates a portion of the proceeds from each sold copy. As
a reader of a TREDITION CLASSICS book, you support our mission to
save many of the amazing works of world literature from oblivion.
Thus, when he took up his claim of three hundred and sixty acres of
land in the wilderness of northern Michigan, and sent my mother and
five young chil- dren to live there alone until he could join us
eighteen months later, he gave no thought to the manner in which we
were to make the struggle and survive the hardships before us. He
had furnished us with land and the four walls of a log cabin.

The massive size of the original six-volume History of Woman
Suffrage has likely limited its impact on the lives of the women
who benefited from the efforts of the pioneering suffragists. By
collecting miscellanies like state suffrage reports and speeches of
every sort without interpretation or restraint, the set was often
neglected as impenetrable. In their Concise History of Woman
Suffrage, Mari Jo Buhle and Paul Buhle have revitalized this
classic text by carefully selecting from among its best material.
The eighty-two chosen documents now include interpretative
introductory material by the editors, giving researchers easy
access to material that the original work's arrangement often
caused readers to ignore or to overlook. The volume contains the
work of many reform agitators, among them Angelina Grimke, Lucy
Stone, Carrie Chapman Catt, Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Anna Howard
Shaw, Jane Addams, Sojourner Truth, and Victoria Woodhull, as well
as Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Susan B. Anthony, Matilda Joslyn Gage,
and Ida Husted Harper. Mari Jo Buhle is William R. Kenan Jr. author
of Feminism and Psychoanalysis. Paul Buhle, Senior Lecturer in
history and American civilization at Brown, is the author of The
Wobblies: A Graphic History and many other books.
