Hardcover. Book Condition: Good. Jacket Condition: No Jacket. Harper, New York, NY 1928. First Edition. 1st Printing. 423 pages. Moderate general wear. Size: 9.1 x 6.5 x 1.1. An American leader of the women's suffrage movement who ran for President of the United States in the 1872 election. While many historians and authors agree that Woodhull was the first woman to run for the presidency, some disagree with classifying it as a true candidacy because she was younger than the constitutionally mandated age of 35. (Woodhull's 35th birthday was in September 1873, six months after the March inauguration.) An activist for women's rights and labor reforms, Woodhull was also an advocate of 'free love', by which she meant the freedom to marry, divorce and bear children without social restriction or government interference.
