Imagine you were there campaigning for women's right to vote. Celebrate the 100th anniversary of this historic milestone by reading about the people and worldwide events that led to the 19th Amendment giving American women the right to vote.

The Imagine You Were There... series celebrates events that changed the world and the people who made them happen. 2019 sees the 100th anniversary of the passing of the 19th Amendment giving women the vote in the United States. Winning the Vote for Women celebrates this milestone by helping readers imagine what it was like to be there. Blended with stunning photographs and lively artwork, the book looks at the start of the women's suffrage movement under Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony. It includes details of events leading up to passing of the historic Amendment, how women campaigned (and won) in other countries, eyewitness accounts of the suffragettes and their harsh treatment by the authorities, and features on the women and men who helped change history.
