This is a collection of 20 short, usually one-act plays used in the American suffrage campaign. Several of the plays turned anti-suffrage arguments into arguments for suffrage. Some dealt with social issues showing how women needed the vote. Two used the issue of pure milk, which was a concern since the wealthy were able to obtain pure milk while the poor only could get substandard milk which led to sickness and death. The issue of marriage and the use mistaken identity appeared in a few of the plays. As with many collections, I found the quality of the plays uneven. The background and importance of each play was discussed in the introduction to the plays; I think it would have been more useful to have each play's introduction immediately precede the play. ( )
