Summary "History of Woman Suffrage, Volume II" by Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Susan B. Anthony, and Matilda Joslyn Gage is a historical account likely written in the late 19th century. This volume, part of a multi-volume series, delves into the struggles and contributions of women in the suffrage movement, particularly during the tumultuous Civil War period up to 1876, examining the intersection of women's rights and broader social changes. The opening of this volume reflects on women's patriotism and active participation during the Civil War, showcasing their vital contributions to the war effort and the subsequent advocacy for their political rights. It details the various roles women played, from organizing relief efforts and nursing the wounded to attempting to assert their right to vote and participate in the political process. Notable figures such as Anna Ella Carroll, Clara Barton, and Josephine Griffing are highlighted for their significant yet often unrecognized contributions, emphasizing that the outcomes of the war influenced women's fight for suffrage and greater societal recognition.
