Universally acknowledged as one of the most prolific activists of the 19th century, Susan B. Anthony devoted most of her adult life to humanitarian reform. She was an integral player in nearly every social reform movement of her time, including temperance, women's suffrage, and abolitionism.
The publication of Susan B. Anthony: A Biographical Companion coincides with the 150th anniversary of the women's rights movement in the United States. More than 100 entries cover the significant events, people, publications, movements, and organizations associated with Anthony, and each entry describes the topic in historical context.

Judith E. Harper is a professional writer specializing in U.S. history, with an emphasis on women's history.
From the Introduction
....Although she is often remembered as the embodiment of the sour-faced, dour visage imprinted on the Susan B. Anthony dollar, she defied this stereotype. She was as much the witty, funny, warmhearted, generous, vulnerable, and lovable woman as she was the determined, domineering activist, shrewd political strategist, and manipulative propagandist. People who met her often expected the worst, fearing that they would confront the severe, man-hating horror the newspapers told them they would find. Instead they were shocked and delighted to meet a down-to-earth, gracious woman deeply interested in their problems and just as thoroughly committed to persuading them that woman suffrage was the best way to remedy them.
