In this social history, DeLuzio (history, Southern Methodist U.) assembles 12 chapters by historians and women's studies scholars from the US on the struggle for women's rights throughout American history. Addressing the waves of feminism as well as the periods between them, chapters survey prominent theorists, women, and political organizers and leaders, as well as ordinary women who played a role in women's rights. Topics include women's rights from the colonial period up to the 1970s; issues such as suffrage, economic independence, reproductive rights, and racial equality; the rights of Native American women; education in the nineteenth and twentieth century; the ongoing movement for women's rights in the present day; and how multiple categories of identity affect women's responses to social inequality and oppression. Primary source documents such as the Declaration of Sentiments, the National American Woman Suffrage Association's "Why Women Should Vote," and a letter from the editors of BUST magazine are included.
