Paperback. Condition: Good. A strange and sticky piece of history. January 15, 1919, started off as a normal day in Boston's North End.

Alice Paul made a significant impact on both the woman's suffrage movement--the long struggle for votes for women--to the second wave, when women demanded full equality with men. After women won the vote in 1920, Paul wrote the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA), which would make all the laws that discriminated against women unconstitutional.
