"As we approach the 100th anniversary of the first time women voted
in a presidential race, how fitting it is to read short stories
that illuminate one event that helped women achieve that right: a
historic women's march in New York City in 1915. This book's
collection includes authors whose work I devour--from Dolen
Perkins-Valdez to Chris Bohjalian to Christina Baker Kline--and
here they are, all in one place."
--Tori Whitaker for Parade Magazine "A landmark 1915 protest for
women's suffrage is the setting for the dozen short stories in this
rousing anthology...A diverse range of vivid characters brings
human faces to a historical protest march."
--Kirkus Reviews "[Stories From Suffragette City] gives assured
voice and intriguing dimension to the actors of a pivotal era."
--Publishers Weekly
