Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Florence Garvin (February 27, 1876 July 10, 1968) was a women's rights activist, the daughter of former Rhode Island governor Lucius F. C. Garvin, the author of several books including Land Rent, Arden Charm and Americanism and a candidate for United States Vice President in the 1932 and 1936 presidential elections. She was a member of the National American Woman Suffrage Association, the head of the Rhode Island College Equal Suffrage League and Third Vice-President of the Women's National Single Tax League, a group supporting the ideas of Henry George. In 1932 she was the running mate of presidential candidate John Zahnd of the National Party, also known as the Independent Party; Zahnd has been called "one of the more intriguing fringe candidates in American history." She was the third woman to have run for vice-president in the United States. They won1,645 votes versus the 22,821,277 of winners Franklin Delano Roosevelt and John Nance Garner. It was the only time perennial candidate Zahnd was known to have received any votes. She ran again with Zahnd in 1936 at which point the party's name was changed to the Greenback Party.
