I loved all the lessons of "Herstory" to be read here. What an under rated pioneer for women, Matilda was and no one even seems to know. A friend of mine gave me this fine copy.

I recently read "White Women's Rights: The racial origins of feminism in the United States" by Louise Newman and wanted to review suffragist writing through Newman's lens. My friend had a copy of "Woman, Church, and State" and let me borrow it. I'm about half way through and I must admit that while
Insanely good and a must read for women especcially.
