Books like Lucy Stone by Alice Stone Blackwell

Name: Lucy Stone
Author: Alice Stone Blackwell

Lucy Stone, a leading 19th‑century abolitionist and suffragist, championed women's legal rights, education, and equality. In 1850 she organized the first national women’s rights convention in Worcester, Massachusetts, bringing together figures such as Susan B. Anthony and Julia Ward Howe. Stone also attended antislavery conferences with Frederick Douglass, intertwining the causes of abolition and women's suffrage. Alice Stone Blackwell, editor of the *Woman's Journal*, authored a concise and unsentimental biography of her mother in 1930, shortly after the ratification of the Nineteenth Amendment. The 2020 reissue offers readers a vivid portrait of Stone’s lifelong advocacy and her enduring influence on feminist and abolitionist reform.
