- catalog abstract ""This book looks at the major events, themes and problems of the suffrage movement from its beginnings to its conclusion. For six decades, thousands experienced repeated defeats of women's suffrage bills and amendments, anti-suffragism from men and women alike, the militant movement with its violence, imprisonments, hunger strikes and forcible feeding, and multiple internal divisions occasioned by conflicts over party loyalties, strategies and World War I, only to end up with the partial victory of 1918. Women devoted their lives to the cause, not merely because the vote was their right, but because they wanted to change the world and saw in the vote the power to do so."--Jacket.".
