Remembering Inez : the last campaign of Inez Milholland, suffrage martyr : selections from The suffragist, 1916 by Robert Cooney

A slim volume of photos and excerpts from The Suffragist newspaper about Milholland and her early death during the suffrage campaign.
I was disappointed not to find more personal information about her life but this is not a biography. Its focus is on her death and the impact it had on her suffrage friends and the movement.
Excellent
