The Ideas of the Woman Suffrage Movement/1890-1920 Aileen S. Kraditor
Disappointing book on the conceptual framework for the Woman Suffrage movement in the United States. It’s not bad, it just didn’t have any information I could use for my work on Mary Ann Freeze. Too bad.

Winning the Vote: The Triumph of the American Woman Suffrage Movement Robert P. J. Cooney Jr. in collaboration with the National Women’s History Project
A large picture book reminiscent of books that accompany PBS series. Great pictures from the Woman Suffrage movement, brief biographies of the major, and some minor, players, and useful history, though brief like the biographies. Good overview but not an in-depth scholarly work.
