Under the Surface: A Gripping Bear and Mandy Logan Mystery

Excerpt from Under the Surface There are people who wonder at the extraordinary steadfastness of purpose of the Women Suffragists, who cannot understand how it is that the best of our Women are giving up their lives, their money, and their strength, to forward the movement, and never seem to tire of working for it. Such people see only in this movement the desire for equality, the desire to possess a so-called privilege the desire to record a vote at Parliamentary elections. It is for these people that this pamphlet is written. In it, I have tried to show why we need and must have the vote. How, in the back ages, in the ages of so-called chivalry, Man has made it difficult, and almost impossible for himself, to live a good life. How the power has been his to legislate, and how, as indeed one would have expected, when such power is left to one sex alone, the legislation resulting has invariably been to the disadvantage of the unrepresented, and therefore weaker sex; and how for the sake of the future sons of England, as well as daughters, women must demand to exercise what they know to be a political right and duty. The Woman's Suffrage movement is a moral movement. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
