Beschreibung
Some things are worth doing-even when the cost is great"I have long admired Jane Kirkpatrick's rich historical fiction, and. Something Worth Doing. is well worth reading. Oregonian Abigail Duniway is a vibrant, fiercely passionate, and determined activist who fought for women's suffrage. Women of today have cause to respect and admire her. '"-Francine Rivers, author of. Redeeming Love. In 1853, Abigail Scott was a nineteen-year-old school teacher in Oregon Territory when she married Ben Duniway. Marriage meant giving up on teaching, but Abigail always believed she was meant to be more than a good wife and mother. When Abigail becomes the primary breadwinner for her growing family, what she sees as a working woman appalls her-and prompts her to devote her life to fighting for the rights of women, including the right to vote. Based on a true story, Something Worth Doing. will resonate with modern women who still grapple with the pull between career and family, finding their place in the public sphere, and dealing with frustrations and prejudices when competing in male-dominated spaces.
