Who was Susan B. Anthony- what did she stand for, why was she arrested, and how did she fight for women's right to vote? And did she ever see her dream of woman's suffrage come true? From the first women's rights convention at Seneca Falls, New York, to the enactment of the 19th Amendment, this lively chronicle introduces Anthony and the American suffragist movement. 40 pages
"Why Couldn't Susan B. Anthony Vote? addresses the inequality of voting rights at the turn of the twentieth century as well as countries that still curtail women's suffrage today... Useful both as a concise examination of American history and as a critical thinking tool." -Booklist (Grades 3-6)
