“Beautifully researched and written…A perfect supplemental research text. Every school library that includes women’s history as a part of the school curriculum should carry at least one of these texts. The text adds an important voice to our knowledge about the United States Government and history.”

“Peels back the layers of the story of the women’s suffrage movement, exposing grit, fiery determination, and radical tactics…Bausum’s careful research is evident throughout, with sources thoroughly cited and a text studded with original source quotations.”
— School Library Journal“The entire volume is put together wonderfully, using some never-before-published photos and a lively layout. Bausum also gives a gift to young researchers by noting, chapter by chapter, what sources she used in her research and how she used them. Excellent.”
