About this ebook


"In presenting to our readers, the second volume of the “History of Woman Suffrage,” we gladly return our thanks to the press for the many favorable notices we have received from leading journals, both in the old world and the new. The words of cordial approval from a large circle of friends, and especially from women well known in periodical literature, have been to us a constant stimulus during the toilsome months we have spent in gathering material for these pages. It was our purpose to have condensed the records of the last twenty years in a second volume, but so many new questions in regard to Citizenship, State rights, and National power, indirectly bearing on the political rights of women, grew out of the civil war, that the arguments and decisions in Congress and the Supreme Courts have combined to swell these pages beyond our most liberal calculations, with much valuable material that cannot be condensed nor ignored, making a third volume inevitable.
By their active labors all through the great conflict, women learned that they had many interests outside the home. In the camp and hospital, and the vacant places at their firesides, they saw how intimately the interests of the State and the home were intertwined; that as war and all its concomitants were subjects of legislation, it was only through a voice in the laws that their efforts for peace could command consideration".

Elizabeth Cady Stanton

Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815-1902) was a leader of the U.S. women’s rights movement. Born to a powerful New York family, Stanton was raised by a conservative father and progressive mother. Although both of her parents were politically active—her father was a congressman and later a New York Supreme Court justice; her mother was a campaigner for abolition and women’s suffrage—Stanton, who excelled in school, gravitated toward the radical politics of her mother as she entered adulthood. In 1848, she was instrumental in establishing the Seneca Falls Convention on women’s rights, where she controversially demanded that white American women be granted the right to vote. In 1851, she met Susan B. Anthony, with whom she established several organizations to campaign for abolition and women’s suffrage, shifting during the war to a platform advocating for voting rights to be granted to African Americans and women before opposing the Fifteenth Amendment on the grounds that it afforded African American men the right to vote while denying women the same privilege. After the Civil War, Stanton, alongside Anthony, formed the National Woman Suffrage Association, branching off from the larger suffrage movement to advocate for the right for white women to vote. Despite this controversial decision—she was widely criticized by members of her own movement as well as such prominent African Americans as Frederick Douglass—Stanton remains a crucial figure in the history of women’s rights in the United States.
