4.9/5 (13563 ratings)

Description:March of the Suffragettes details the inspiring and little-known story of "General" Rosalie Gardiner Jones and the makeshift all-women's army of old friends and newfound suffrage "pilgrims" she assembled to march nearly two hundred miles to win the vote for women. Rosalie's army hiked hundreds of wintry miles for their cause, fighting not just Mother Nature in the form of wind, fog, sleet, snow, mud, and ice, but also overprotective parents, male and female hecklers, and escaped convicts along their route. They would meet and mingle with the rich and famous while attending glamorous balls and high-teas, but they would also fight blisters and bone-chilling cold, debate bitter Anti-suffragists, and dodge way-ward bullets and pyrotechnics aimed in their direction. They would compose and sing their own pilgrims' choruses and marching songs for sisterhood and solidarity, even as the differences among them threatened to tear them apart.An inspiring account of social change for young and old alike, March of the Suffragettes reminds us of our historical amnesia where early feminists are concerned even as it vividly resurrects the memory of their bravery, moral courage, and indomitable fighting spirit.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
