<p> From 1865 Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton led campaigns for equal rights for all but were ultimately defeated by a Congress and reformers intent on applying suffrage established with constitutional amendments and legislation to men only. Ignoring all women black and white advocates argued that enfranchising black men would solve race problems masking the effect on women. This book weaves Anthony's and Stanton's campaigns together with national and congressional events in the process uncovering relationships among these events and revealing the devastating impact on the women and their campaign for civil rights for all citizens.</p>
