Victoria Woodhull (1838-1927) was a remarkable kick-ass woman who was so controversial that she was erased from history. The first female stockbroker, the first woman to testify to Congress, publisher of a weekly radical newspaper, the first American to reprint Marx AND the first woman to run for President at a time when women could not vote. She deserves a place in our pantheon of trailblazing women. But Susan B. Anthony and the religious right, afraid of Victoria's radical views on love and marriage, denied her credit during her lifetime and they worked to deny her any historical legacy. I'm hoping this book will help restore her reputation or at least give readers insight into one fascinating story that is not in our American history textbooks.
