The first comprehensive, fully documented biography of the most important woman suffragist and feminist reformer in nineteenth-century America, *In Her Own Right* restores Elizabeth Cady Stanton to her true place in history. Griffith emphasizes the significance of role models and female friendships in Stanton's progress toward personal and political independence. *In Her Own Right* is, in the author's words, an "unabashedly 'great woman' biography."
