Summary
"When women picketed the White House demanding the vote on January 10, 1917, they broke new ground in political activism. They won the 19th Amendment, ensuring that the right to vote cannot be denied because of gender. This book chronicles the work of Alice Paul and the National Woman's Party and their influence on American political activism"-- Provided by publisher
