Searching for Matilda: Portrait of a Forgotten Feminist (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780615772325)

How can a woman who was as vital as her colleagues, Susan B.Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton, in the 19th century woman's rights movement still be unknown? Matilda Joslyn Gage was purposely omitted, even excluded, from history. Charlotte Shapiro, determined to uncover the mystery of Gage's exclusion, spent four years researching the literature and history of that period. Searching for Matilda: Portrait of a Forgotten Feminist reveals the personal and political conflicts responsible for Gage's omission from history, an omission that denied her writings and feminist theories to the second women's movement and to all of us who worked for women's equality.
