Between 1886 and 1920, American suffragette associations published several cookbooks to support womans' right to vote.
A wonderful cookbook came out of Pittsburgh in 1915. Here are a sampling of recipes from The Suffrage Cook Book:

Editor L. O. Kleber filled The Suffrage Cook Book with recipes, celebrity endorsements, photographs and spicey jokes. The Suffrage Cook Book became a part of the fight for gaining women the right to vote in 1920.
Kleber compiled a captivating collection of recipes, photographic portraits, celebrity endorsements, political propaganda and good old fashioned humour. This reprint of the classic 1915 edition adds 15 archival photographs from the American suffrage movement.
The Suffrage Cook Book is an integral part of the American suffrage movement and a great book in its own right. Add yours to your cart now!
