Thirty-five states have ratified the Nineteenth Amendment, twelve have rejected or refused to vote, and one last state is needed. It all comes down to Tennessee, the moment of truth for the suffragists, after a seven-decade crusade. The opposing forces include politicians with careers at stake, liquor companies, railroad magnates, and a lot of racists who don't want black women voting. And then there are the "Antis"--Women who oppose their own enfranchisement, fearing suffrage will bring about the moral collapse of the nation. They all converge in a boiling hot summer for a vicious face-off replete with dirty tricks, betrayals and bribes, bigotry, Jack Daniel's, and the Bible. Following a handful of remarkable women who led their respective forces into battle, along with appearances by Woodrow Wilson, Warren Harding, Frederick Douglass, and Eleanor Roosevelt, The Woman's Hour is an inspiring story of activists winning their own freedom in one of the last campaigns forged in the shadow of the Civil War, and the beginning of the great twentieth-century battles for civil rights"-- $c Provided by publisher 610 10 $a United States. $t Constitution. $n 19th Amendment $x History. 650 0 $a Women $x History $z Tennessee $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Women $x History $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Suffragists $z Tennessee $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Suffragists $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 650 1 $a Women $x History $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 650 1 $a Women $x History $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 650 2 $a Women $x suffrage 650 2 $a Women $x history $y 20th century 650 2 $a Women $x political activity 651 2 $a United States. $0 (DNLM)D014481 650 7 $a HISTORY $x Women. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a HISTORY $z United States $x 20th Century. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a POLITICAL SCIENCE $x Campaigns & Elections. $x Campaigns & Elections. $2 bisacsh 630 07 $a Constitution (United States) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01356075 650 7 $a Suffragists. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01137197 650 7 $a Women $x Suffrage. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01176996 651 7 $a Tennessee. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01205353 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 610 17 $a United States. $t Constitution. $n 19th Amendment $x History. $2 nli 650 7 $a Women $x History $z Tennessee $x History $y 20th century. $2 nli 650 7 $a Women $x History $z United States $x History $y 20th century. $2 nli 650 7 $a Suffragists $z Tennessee $x History $y 20th century. $2 nli 650 7 $a Suffragists $z United States $x History $y 20th century. $2 nli 610 17 $a United States. $t Constitution. $n 19th Amendment $x History. $2 sears 650 7 $a Suffragists $z United States $x History. $2 sears 650 7 $a Women $x History. $z United States $x History. $2 sears 650 7 $a Women $x History. $z United States $x History. $2 sears 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a Nonfiction novels. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01922489 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 $a Nonfiction novels. $2 lcgft 776 08 $i Online version: $a Weiss, Elaine F., 1952- $t Woman's hour. $d New York, New York : Viking, [2018] $z 9780698407831 $w (DLC) 2018016894 941 $a 2 $n 1 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20211211144218.0 $m Book Discussion 324.623 W $n 5 952 $l SCPC074 $d 20210607155249.0 $n 8 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=33A59894AC3311EB98A411E3203FDB2A 994 $a C0 $b IOZInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
