"The National Park Service is excited to commemorate the 100th year anniversary of the passage of the 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution that abolished sex as a basis for voting and to tell the diverse history of women's suffrage-the right to vote-more broadly. The U.S. Congress passed the 19th Amendment on June 4, 1919. The states ratified the amendment on August 18, 1920, officially recognizing women's right to vote. This handbook demonstrates the expansiveness of the stories the NPS is telling to preserve and protect women's history for this and future generations. The essays included within tell a broad history of various women advocating for their rights. Sprinkled throughout are short biographies of notable ladies who devoted their time to the women's suffrage movement along with summaries of events important to the cause"--

Women have made their mark on history in a variety of ways. However, the list of well-known women leaders is rather shorter than a similar list of men leaders. Some of these female leaders, like Queen Elizabeth I and Queen Elizabeth II, are familiar to many people. Their stories are in this book. Also herein are the stories of many lesser-known female leaders, whose stories as just as compelling as those famous queens'. It's not just countries, either. In this book you will find stories of women leaders of movements. Most people can probably Rosa Parks as a leader of the civil rights movement in America. But do most people know the accomplishments of Fannie Lou Hamer? They should. Her tireless advocacy was instrumental in the passage of tthe Voting Rights Act of 1965; she inspired many other women and many men to continue the struggle for equality. In the same vein were the leaders of the women's suffrage movement, not only in America but also in other countries. American women gained the right to vote in national elections only 1920. Most women in Britain had it a couple of years before that. But can you name the country that was the first in the world to grant women the vote? Think a tiny South Pacific nation that isn't Australia (but is relatively close by). Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton are familiar names in American history, and they certainly were instrumental in advancing the right to vote for American women, but it was Kate Sheppard in that tiny faraway South Pacific nation who almost singlehandedly delivered suffrage in her country. As well, women are and have been leaders of companies and organizations. The number of women running Fortune 500 and other famous companies is rising. Learn more about some of these boardroom executives. In this book: - Stories of triumph over adversity. - Stories of incredible achievements to which women made vital contributions. - Stories of success in many walks of life. This book is for anyone who wants to learn more about women leaders, past and present. This is a great gift for any teen or adult!
