In its third edition this accessible and engaging collection of the writings of Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony provides a critical overview of the lives, ideas and activism of two founders of the American feminist tradition. Introductory material has been extensively revised to reflect recent scholarship and provides historical context to selected letters, speeches, articles, reminiscences, arguments before courts, state legislatures and Congress. Of particular interest is new material concerning Cady Stanton's relationship with Frederick Douglass and Anthony's with Ida B. Wells.
Ellen Carol DuBois is the author of numerous histories of suffrage and women's rights, in the U.S. and internationally. She is a distinguished research professor at UCLA and resides in Los Angeles.
