Feminist Collections: A Quarterly Of Women's Studies Resources

Reference librarians Mosley and Charles present a resource text for teachers, librarians, students, and researchers to the available literature for youth on the topic of woman's suffrage. The text opens with a section of brief biographies of 50 key figures in the American movement; each includes an annotated list of print, nonprint and electronic resources for the individual. The remaining sections include annotated lists of suffragethemed resources grouped by type (nonfiction books and monographs, fiction, drama, media, internet sites, the suffrage movement in other countries), field trip and classroom activity suggestions, and topics and questions for discussion or papers. All resources listed throughout the text include an age group label; the majority are for upper elementary through high school/adult. Indexed by author, title, and subject.
