Something Worth Doing: A Novel of an Early Suffragist Tapa blanda - 2020
de Jane Kirkpatrick
Descripción de contraportada
Some things are worth doing--even when the cost is great
In 1853, Abigail Scott was a nineteen-year-old school teacher in Oregon Territory when she married Ben Duniway. Marriage meant giving up on teaching, but Abigail always believed she was meant to be more than a good wife and mother. When Abigail becomes the primary breadwinner for her growing family, what she sees as a working woman appalls her--and prompts her to devote her life to fighting for the rights of women, including the right to vote.
Based on a true story, Something Worth Doing will resonate with modern women who still grapple with the pull between career and family, finding their place in the public sphere, and dealing with frustrations and prejudices when competing in male-dominated spaces.
"I have long admired Jane Kirkpatrick's rich historical fiction, and Something Worth Doing is well worth reading! Oregonian Abigail Duniway is a vibrant, fiercely passionate, and determined activist who fought for women's suffrage. Women of today have cause to respect and admire her--as well as the loving, patient, and supportive husband who encouraged her to continue 'the silent hunt.'"--Francine Rivers, author of Redeeming Love
"Reading Jane Kirkpatrick's story of this persistent, passionate, and bold Oregon icon is indeed something worth doing!"--Susan G. Butruille, author of Women's Voices from the Oregon Trail
