Synopsis
Victoria Woodhull (1838-1927) became a child preacher at the age of eight and escaped her abusive father via an ill-fated child marriage at 14. "She read palms, sewed clothes, acted, gave medical aid, and did whatever she could to survive and support her children." She advised Cornelius Vanderbilt and became a multimillionairess, the first woman to found her own newspaper (for the advancement of women's suffrage) and the first woman with a seat on the stock exchange. She ran for president against Grant in 1872 ("the wildest, most outrageous act she could dream up to prove women's equality"), nearly half a century before women could vote, with African-American abolitionist Frederick Douglass as her vice-presidential nominee. (Their Equal Rights Party was aptly named.) Immensely detailed full-color watercolor illustrations evoke both the period and the iron-willed Woodhull.

Industry reviews
"The is a gorgeous volume, with Dyer's full-page, full-bleed watercolors capturing the essentials of the time and place with fine color and detail. Krull, as always, gets it all and makes us want to know more."
Kirkus  (08/01/2004)

"Engaging anecdotes and quotes keep this intriguing life story moving at a sprightly pace. Featuring gold tones, Dyer's softly focused watercolors ably capture period particulars as well as Woodhull's determination and grace."
Publishers Weekly  (08/02/2004)
