Description
Excerpt: Chapter 1. Introductory Note. The introduction to the ?History of Woman Suffrage,? published in 1881?85, edited by Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Susan B. Anthony and Matilda Joslyn Gage, contains the following statement: ?It is often asserted that, as woman has always been man?s slave, subject, inferior, dependent, under all forms of government and religion, slavery must be her normal condition; but that her condition is abnormal is proved by the marvellous change in her character, from a toy in the Turkish harem, or a drudge in the German fields, to a leader of thought in the literary circles of France, England, and America.?
