About this ebook

Musaicum Books presents to you this carefully created volume of "The Memoirs of Elizabeth Cady Stanton: Eighty Years and More". This ebook has been designed and formatted to the highest digital standards and adjusted for readability on all devices.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton, born in 1815, was an American suffragist, social activist, abolitionist, and leading figure of the early women's rights movement. Along with her friend Susan B. Anthony, Canton was one of the very prominent faces of Women's Movement in America. Her Declaration of Sentiments, presented at the Seneca Falls Convention in 1848 New York, is often credited with initiating the first organized women's rights and women's suffrage movements in USA. Unlike her contemporaries, Stanton was also interested in various other issues pertaining to women like their parental and custody rights, property rights, employment and income rights, divorce, the economic health of the family, and birth control until her death in 1905. But even before being a suffragist, she had also been a champion of Abolitionist cause and envisaged the dream of a just society since the very beginning of her life. This edition brings to you the famed autobiography of this courageous woman in celebration of the undying spirit of freedom, equality and woman power.
"I am moved to recall what I can of my early days, what I thought and felt, that grown people may have a better understanding of children and do more for their happiness and development. I see so much tyranny exercised over children, even by well-disposed parents, and in so many varied forms,—a tyranny to which these parents are themselves insensible,—that I desire to paint my joys and sorrows in as vivid colors as possible, in the hope that I may do something to defend the weak from the strong...."

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.
