Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
In 1881, three writers and rights activists, Susan B. Anthony,
Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Matilda Joslyn Gage, came together to
publish the first volume in their groundbreaking History of Woman
Suffrage series - a series that eventually went on to fill 5700
pages and lend weight to a movement that changed the course of
history for ever. Taking its dedication from the first volume of
the History - to the memory of pioneering women whose 'earnest
lives and fearless words... have been, in the preparation of these
pages, a constant inspiration' - this volume collects together four
essays that give an insight into the work as a whole, and provide a
rounded introduction to the history of women's suffrage on both
sides of the Atlantic.
In its third edition this accessible and engaging collection of the
writings of Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony provides a
critical overview of the lives, ideas and activism of two founders
of the American feminist tradition. Introductory material has been
extensively revised to reflect recent scholarship and provides
historical context to selected letters, speeches, articles,
reminiscences, arguments before courts, state legislatures and
Congress. Of particular interest is new material concerning Cady
Stanton's relationship with Frederick Douglass and Anthony's with
Ida B. Wells.

An account of the landmark suffragist trial before the U.S. Circuit
Court for the Northern District of New York, that brought the cause
of women's voting rights to the forefront of national attention. A
group of women led by Susan B. Anthony attempted to vote during the
presidential election of 1872, claiming they were entitled to the
Fourteenth Amendment. The presiding officials, Jones, Hall and
Marsh, decided by a majority to accept their ballots. The women
were soon arrested for this act and indicted for "knowingly voting
without having a lawful right to vote." The officials were also
indicated. This volume reprints the text of the indictment and a
transcript of the testimony with connecting commentary.
