Victoria Woodhull by Miriam Brody
At a time when women were regarded as second-class citizens, Victoria Woodhull (1838-1927) led a life of many "firsts." She was the first woman stockbroker, the first woman to speak before Congress, and the first woman to run for President of the United States.
Clear..freshly worded and free of cliches. * Catholic Library World *
Insightful and comprehensive picture of Woodhull and the often underreported role she played in the early women's rights movement....Best suited for students more interested in getting the full picture of the lives of these Americans, rather than those looking for a simple accounting of facts. * School Library Journal *
