Radical, feminist, writer, suffragist - Matilda Joslyn Gage changed the course of history. She fought for equal rights not dependent on sex, race, class, or creed. Yet her name has faded into obscurity, and she is forgotten when her comrades, Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton, are celebrated. In an attempt to explain this, Angelica Shirley Carpenter explores Gage's life, including her rise and fall within the movement she helped build.
