"Arkansas Women and the Right to Vote"

Arkansas Women and the Right to Vote: The Little Rock Campaigns: 1868–1920 by Bernadette Cahill explores how the capital city of Little Rock served as the focal point not only for suffrage work in Arkansas, but also for the state’s contribution to the nationwide nonviolent campaign for women’s suffrage. Based on original research, Cahill’s book relates the history of some of those who contributed to this victorious struggle, reveals long-forgotten photographs, includes a map of the locations of meetings and rallies, and provides a list of Arkansas suffragists.
