No Votes for Women

"Goodier has demonstrated the important role the Great War played in affecting domestic political campaigns. Any scholar interested in woman's rights, conservatism, or New York history will learn a tremendous amount from the work. And no future scholar studying either the suffrage movement or the anti-suffrage campaign will be able to think about the subject without first taking Goodier's analysis into full consideration."--The Hudson River Valley Review

 

"Goodier provides a compelling study of the female-led anti-suffrage movement in New York.  A valuable addition to the study of women's suffrage and voting in the US.  Highly recommended."--Choice

 "Goodier adds to the historical discussion an emphasis on the interaction between the "suffs" and the "antis" and her focus on the differing impact of World War I on the anti-suffrage movement is also important. Another significant contribution of the work is to highlight the fact that antisuffrage women did not share the suffragists' dilemma over whether to join the traditional political parties after ratification."--The Journal of American History
