really liked it

Lots of detail about Alice Paul, very little about Susan B Anthony. Leaves the impression that the latter had achieved virtually nothing and only the more militant tactics Paul imported from the Pankhursts in England won us the right to vote. But that is not argued, just implied. Now I’d like to read a book aimed at adults that would make such an argument. Don’t know how well kids would enjoy this book which is pretty rich in tactical detail
