This Thursday, October 14th at 4:15, Mary Walton talks about her new book, A Woman's Crusade: Alice Paul and the Battle for the Ballot.
"A Woman's Crusade is a biography richly endowed with research, giving the reader dense, detailed, absorbing accounts of seemingly every march, demonstration and congressional hearing that Alice Paul either conceived or influenced... I value the book for introducing her [Mary Walton] to the next generation of feminists with a taste for revolution." - Ms. Magazine, Vivian Gornick
