{"product_id":"seneca-falls-and-the-origins-sally-mcmillen-9780195393330","title":"Seneca Falls and the Origins of the Women's Rights Movement","description":"In the quiet town of Seneca Falls, New York, over the course of two days in July, 1848, a small group of women and men, led by Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott, held a convention that would launch the women's rights movement and change the course of history. In \u003cem\u003eSeneca Falls and the Origins of the Women's Rights Movement\u003c\/em\u003e, Sally McMillen reveals, for the first time, the full significance of that revolutionary convention and the enormous changes it produced. The book covers 50 years of women's activism, from 1840 to 1890, focusing on four extraordinary figures--Mott, Stanton, Lucy Stone, and Susan B. Anthony. McMillen tells the stories of their lives, how they came to take up the cause of women's rights, the astonishing advances they made during their lifetimes, and the far-reaching effects of the work they did. At the convention they asserted full equality with men, argued for greater legal rights, greater professional and education opportunities, and the right to vote--ideas considered wildly radical at the time. Indeed, looking back at the convention two years later, Anthony called it \"the grandest and greatest reform of all time.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sally McMillen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0195393333\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780195393330\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/08\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 322\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.11lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.24h x 6.10w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChristian Century\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/20\/2009 pg. 23","brand":"Sally McMillen","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44046958035199,"sku":"9780195393330","price":18.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7adc152f-fcdf-44e7-9a31-18ddd02f0bc8.jpg?v=1684987466","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/seneca-falls-and-the-origins-sally-mcmillen-9780195393330","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
