Description

Suffragists of Early Long Beach is sure to become the authoritative account of one of the great episodes in the history of Long Beach, California. It is the seventh in a series chronicling the history of early Long Beach, California. This book tells the story of the women and men who came to Long Beach in search of better climate and opportunities. They stayed in the city by the sea and fought for temperance and prohibition and then suffrage. Now, through extensive research, Long Beach native Gerrie Schipske brings to life this compelling and vital story. The book includes "biographs" of eleven important Long Beach women and men who showed incredible courage for standing up for what they believed. Through their efforts, suffrage won in 18986 in Long Beach, only to lose state-wide. Later, these suffragists fought for and won state suffrage in 1911 and national suffrage in 1918. In between suffrage campaigns, as members of several women's clubs, they marched, organized, and agitated for a woman's right to full participation. This made Long Beach an attractive place to settle for several prominent national suffragist leaders who worked closely with Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, and Carrie Chapman Catt. Gerrie reveals hidden facts about how Long Beach women were able to vote before any other women in California. She also provides the details of the campaign of Long Beach's first woman candidate in 1911 and how the city's first two women were elected to public office in 1913 and 1916. She also shares how a popular Long Beach woman became the first female to be nominated on the a national ticket for Vice President of the United States.
