The many stories behind women’s suffrage

Kate Messner examines the campaign for women’s suffrage in the United States, correcting a familiar misconception about Susan B. Anthony and the ratification of the Nineteenth Amendment. The account emphasizes the collective effort of millions of women, including marches, picketing, and imprisonment, and points to the role of a state representative’s mother in the final push. Illustrations, graphic panels, photographs, and sidebars shape the book’s presentation, pairing historical context with visual material and lesser-known details about the movement.

Book overview

Myths! Lies! Secrets! Smash the stories behind famous moments in history and expose the hidden truth. Perfect for fans of I Survived and Nathan Hale's Hazardous Tales.

In 1920, Susan B. Anthony passed a law that gave voting rights to women in the United States. RIGHT?

WRONG! Susan B. Anthony wasn't even alive when the Nineteenth Amendment was ratified. Plus, it takes a lot more than one person to amend the constitution.

The truth is, it took millions of women to get that amendment into law. They marched! They picketed! They even went to jail. But in the end, it all came down to a letter from a state representative's mom. No joke.

Through illustrations, graphic panels, photographs, sidebars, and more, acclaimed author Kate Messner smashes history by exploring the little-known details behind the fight for women's suffrage.
