Title

An inscribed, History of Woman Suffrage, vols. 1, to Kate Gleason from Susan B. Anthony.

Subject

Close to the suffrage movement, Gleason was a friend of Anthony who inscribed this volume by noting that Gleason, in 1903, was “the ideal business woman of whom I dreamed fifty years ago.”

Produced in six volumes from 1881-1922, History of Woman Suffrage documents the movement’s presence in the United States. Written by Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Ida Husted Harper, and others associated with the National Woman Suffrage Association, the volumes are both personal and public in their chronicling of the experiences of women.

Description

The ideal business woman of whom I dreamed fifty years ago – a worthy daughter of a noble father. May there be many such in the years to come is the wish of yours affectionately

Susan B. Anthony
