About This Item
Augusta Harrington. Women's Suffrage: A Vision and An Allegory. Westminster: The London Society for Women's Suffrage, 8 pages. Pamphlet with Original paper wrappers. At the time that this description is being written, no copies are recorded in American institutions. OCLC search results are at best an estimate and can vary over time. Very rare. In her book, Harrington describes the rights afforded to men and the weights which have held back women from reaching their full potential: "The men worked with a will and had freed themselves from everything that impeded their movements, but the women had their two writs connected by a cord, which hampered them at every turn..." Released in the foundational days of the English women's suffrage movement, Harrington presents the struggle for women's voting rights through poetic metaphors. The London Society for Women's Suffrage was one of the first suffrage organizations in the UK which published and distributed texts advocating for equal voting rights. Minor chipping to binding and spine. Very good condition.
