    Summary: 
    "The Woman Suffrage cause in the 19th and early 20th centuries, namely that women were citizens of the United States and had a right to shape the government and its laws through the vote, required being creative in means and in message. Communication both to the public and in the private sphere was essential. The postcard fulfilled those demands as the 'tweets' of an earlier time. This book displays hundreds of vintage postcards from the collection of Carol N. Crossed. In turns passionate, humorous, satirical, and informative, they communicate the intensity of the Woman's Rights movement and seem as relevant today as during the time they were originally shared"--Jacket
