1907134985Letchworth Herts: Garden City Press 1907. First edition of Constance Smedley's rare feminist tract published under the pseudonym X and with an appendix by Ethel Snowden. Octavo original cloth morocco spine label lettered in gilt patterned endpapers. Appendix by Ethel Snowden. In good condition. Stamps throughout including to the front and rear panels and top edge. Bookplates to the pastedown. The mid-19th century women’s suffrage movement was broad made up of women and men with a wide range of views. In terms of diversity the greatest achievement of the twentieth-century woman suffrage movement was its extremely broad class base. One major division especially in Britain was between suffragists who sought to create change constitutionally and suffragettes led by English political activist Emmeline Pankhurst who in 1903 formed the more militant Women's Social and Political Union. Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott were the first two women in America to organize the women's rights convention in July 1848. Susan B. Anthony later joined the movement and helped form the National Woman's Suffrage Association NWSA in May of 1869. Their goal was to change the 15th Amendment because it did not mention nor include women which is why the NWSA protested against it. Most major Western powers extended voting rights to women in the interwar period including Canada 1917 Britain and Germany 1918 Austria the Netherlands 1919 and the United States 1920. Author illustrator and campaigner for women's rights Constance Smedley published this feminist tract Woman: A Few Shrieks under the pseudonym ‘X’ in 1907 with an appendix by radical English suffragette Ethel Snowden.

Mr. Wegner has been Curator of Ship Models at the David Taylor Model Basin Naval Surface Warfare Center Carderock Maryland since 1980. He began his study of designer's hull models at the Smithsonian Institution in 1968 and is a member of the American Society of Naval Architects and Marine Engineers the U.S. Naval Institute and the Organization of American Historians. The purpose of this study has been to utilize an interdisciplinary team to examine new evidence in order to determine the identity of the present Constellation: was it built in 1797 or 1855 Recognizing the controversy as one of the most emotionally-charged debates in recent American maritime history the team would not have exacerbated this subject had they not discovered fresh and important historical artifactual and technological evidence. Is the Constellation the oldest warship afloat in the world Or is it the last sail-only warship designed by the Navy. Responsible stewshardship for the irreplaceable ship afloat in Baltimore demands that there be a full understanding of its history. The study concludes that the frigate Constellation was built in 1796-97 and torn apart in 1853. In 1853-1855 a new sloop-of-war Constellation was designed and built and is the one preserved and displayed today. n.p. [Presumed to by U. S.
