INFORMATION BOOKS Alice Paul and the Fight for Women’s Rights: From the Vote to the Equal Rights Amendment

This account traces Alice Paul’s role in campaigns for women’s voting rights and later demands for equal treatment under the law. Paul used demonstrations and banners to revive the suffrage movement, helping advance the 19th Amendment. After women gained the vote in 1920, she wrote the Equal Rights Amendment, intended to make laws that discriminate against women unconstitutional. Her work for women’s rights continued until her death in 1976. The book includes photographs and source notes.
