THE WOMEN'S RIGHTS MOVEMENT

This straightforward and easy-to-follow introduction to the Women's Rights movement covers several topics, with a heavy emphasis on efforts to secure women's suffrage in the 1800s and early 1900s. The book also addresses more recent and current initiatives, particularly the effort to pass the much-debated Equal Rights Amendment. Narrator Talmadge Ragan adopts a measured pace, and her clear and varied articulation helps this work achieve its instructive goals. Ragan's pace and tone result in something approaching an introductory lecture to the topic, and her narration enables the listener to develop an informed understanding of the history of women's suffrage and the key players in the movement.
