To study the women's fight for the vote through my book, "Women Win the Vote! 19 for the 19th Amendment," you can find a free, downloadable teachers guide on my website. Just click on the "For Teachers" link on the landing page. https://www.nancybkennedy.com//for-te...

In 2020, our country celebrated the 100th anniversary of women winning the right to vote. On August 18, 1920, the 19th Amendment to the Constitution was ratified, and the franchise was no longer restricted to men.

My book, "Women Win the Vote! 19 for the 19th Amendment" celebrates this victory through the lives of 19 of the women who devoted themselves to this cause. Among them are women who are well known today, like Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony, as well as lesser known woman like Mary Church Terrell and Adelina Otero-Warren.

The suffrage fight made many women outcasts in their families, their churches and among their friends. They gave their time, their money, their health and sometimes even their lives to the cause. They were mocked, sometimes mobbed, and in the end, some of them were jailed and subjected to the torture of force feeding. "It is worth sacrificing everything for," said Alice Paul, the founder of the National Woman's Party and organizer of protests outside the White House gates.

Previously, I wrote a series of books titled Miracles and Moments of Grace, which are anthologies of inspiring stories. The titles are: Inspiring Stories from Military Chaplains http://www.amazon.com/Miracles-Moment... Inspiring Stories from Doctors https://www.amazon.com/Miracles-Momen... Inspiring Stories from Moms, http://www.amazon.com/Miracles-Moment... Inspiring Stories of Survival, http://www.amazon.com/Miracles-Moment....

A member of the Authors Guild, I worked in newspapers for many years, including a stint as an editor for Dow Jones’s pioneering computer news service, for which I edited both The Wall Street Journal and Barron's.

As a freelance financial writer, I worked for many newspapers and magazines, including the New York Times and the online Wall Street Journal, and for the financial services firm Merrill Lynch. As an editor, I worked for such well-respected publishing houses as Princeton University Press and Ecco Press, now an imprint of HarperCollins.
