Editorial Reviews:
“In Remember the Ladies, Gina Mulligan weaves a tale as captivating and unpredictable as the back-room political deals forged by her colorful cast of characters. While their deceptions and ruthless plotting keep the pages turning, the true heart of the story lies in their connective need to be heard, and to matter — sometimes at any cost. A memorable debut novel about loss, identity, and the paths that very often lead us back to where we began.” — Kristina McMorris, New York Times bestselling author of The Pieces We Keep“This compelling novel tells of one young suffragist’s brave tenacity in fighting for voting rights for women. More than that, it is a story of the struggle for power at the center of politics, and ultimately examines the question of what’s really important. It’s an engaging read all the way through―but you will especially love the ending!” ―Ann Tatlock, Award-winning author of Once Beyond a Time
“Gina Mulligan’s…narration brings to life the story of one woman’s determined opposition to turn-of-the-century paternalism. For Amelia Cooke, winning the vote for women was a consuming ― but not her only ― passion.” ―C. Michael Curtis, The Atlantic
