Book excerpt: Blatch's dedication to woman suffrage, marked by a concern for social justice and human liberty, closely paralleled that of her mother.

There she encouraged women from all classes to participate in the suffrage movement, advocated a lively activist style, and brought a genuine political sensibility to the movement.
