In Her Own Right

In Her Own Right restored Elizabeth Cady Stanton to her true place in history. Proceeding from her privileged, unconventional childhood to her achievements as a reformer, newspaper editor, popular lecturer, and historian of woman's suffrage, and finally to her ultimate position as a national leader, Griffith emphasizes the significance of role models and female friendships in Stanton's progress toward personal and political independence.
