About this book

Melissa J. Frost compiles a chronology of the efforts of the Women's Social and Political Union (WPSU) from 1904 to 1914, excerpted from Andrew Rosen's Rise Up, Women! The events include the suffragists' first action at a city hall meeting to the arrest of Mrs. Pankhurst; the zine also contains information about acts of violence and hunger strikes on the behalf of the protestors. The original print run was 30 color copies, made for a women's colloquium, and the next run of 50 was printed for the NY Art Book Fair.
