| Summary |
"The History of Woman Suffrage, Volume VI" by Ida Husted Harper is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work is the sixth volume in a series that chronicles the long and arduous fight for women's suffrage in the United States. The text likely examines political and social movements from 1900 to 1920, focusing on the organizational efforts, legislative actions, and cultural contexts that shaped the push for women's voting rights during this transformative period. The opening of the volume introduces the ongoing struggle for woman suffrage, detailing the early efforts to amend state and federal laws to ensure voting rights for women. It highlights the formation and evolution of various suffrage associations, the setbacks faced in legislative bodies, and the gradual mobilization of women across different states. The narrative underscores key events and figures in the movement, illustrating how a mix of grassroots activism and organizational support was critical to achieving suffrage victories, culminating in the ratification of the Federal Woman Suffrage Amendment in 1920.
