<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong>A multifaceted meditation on a pioneer of American suffrage, through photography, writing and ephemera</strong></p><p>In 1916, Inez Milholland Boissevain (1886-1916) embarked on a grueling campaign across the Western US on behalf of the National Women's Party appealing for women's suffrage ahead of the 1916 presidential election. <i>Standing Together</i>, by artist Jeanine Michna-Bales (born 1971), retraces Milholland's journey. The 30-year-old suffragist delivered some 50 speeches to standing-room-only crowds in eight states in 21 days: Wyoming, Idaho, Oregon, Washington, Montana, Utah, Nevada and California. She battled chronic illness and lack of sleep during her travels and died a month after her last speech in Los Angeles, where her final public words were, "Mr. President, how long must this go on, no liberty?" <p/>Through her photographs, combining dramatic landscapes and historical reenactments of important vignettes of Milholland on her journey with archival materials, Michna-Bales captures a glimpse of the monumental effort required to pass the 19th Amendment.</p>
