Seeking to debunk the conventional opinion that women had little impact on politics after gaining the vote, Kristi Andersen gives an account of both the accomplishments and the disappointments women experienced in the decade after suffrage. This revisionist history text traces how the entrance of women and their concerns into the public sphere transformed both the political system and women themselves.
