Madam President: The Extraordinary, True (and Evolving) Story of Women in Politics

From book:

"Remember the Ladies," Abigail Adams asked of her husband, John Adams, when he and our forefathers were writing the Constitution. He didn't.

Seventy years later Elizabeth Cady Stanton demanded the government give women the right to vote. The government said no. But one hundred and thirty-six years after that, Geraldine Ferraro declared, "We can do anything" and became the first American woman to run for vice president on a majority party ticket.

Women have come a long way - from not being allowed to own property to running for president. How did they accomplish all this? Read about all the strong, capable women who came before us. Step by step, these ladies have paved the way for our young leaders of tomorrow. Their stories are an inspiration to us all, and just might inspire you to run for president someday!.

Softcover, 80 pages, illustrated.
