The Life and Work of Susan B. Anthony (Volume 1 of 2)
Including Public Addresses, Her Own Letters and Many From Her Contemporaries During Fifty Years
The first volume of Ida Husted Harper's Life and Work of Susan B. Anthony, published in 1899 while its subject was still living and working, was written from her papers with her cooperation. It follows her Quaker upbringing, her years as a teacher, her entry into temperance and antislavery work, her partnership with Elizabeth Cady Stanton, the campaigns of the Civil War years, the founding of the paper The Revolution and of the National Woman Suffrage Association, and the dramatic episode of 1872 when she voted in Rochester and was tried and fined. Addresses, letters and press comment are quoted at length, making the book a documentary history of the suffrage movement's first thirty years. The full text is available to read online in your browser on Vinteuil, and the first chapter is free.
