One Man's Fight for Women's Rights

Beschreibung

It's the late 1800s, and John Ogilvie Stevenson, pastor of the Congregational Church in Waterloo, Iowa, believes women are equal to men intellectually, and superior to men morally and spiritually. As a member of Iowa Woman Suffrage Association, he joins the fight as editor of their monthly newsletter.

Flora Beach Burlingame has been published in the free-lance magazine market, won awards for her short stories, and wrote for The Fresno Bee, a major California newspaper. In addition to features and a regular column, The Bee commissioned her to write a hundred years of history on three California counties for a special Centennial edition. Inspired by her father, a history teacher, stories of the past dominate Flora's writing. In 2011, after countless hours of research, her historical novel Charcoal and Chalk, John Ogilvie and the Beginnings of Black Education in Texas was published. That story, based on an actual teach of the freedmen during Civil Ward Reconstruction, also led to Flora's current book, Path of Progress, the unique perspective of a man's fight for women's rights during the late eighteen hundreds and early twentieth century. Flora has lived in various California locations and currently resides in beautiful, western Washington State.
