Mistress of Herself: Speeches and Letters of Ernestine L. Rose, Early Women's Rights Leader

Susan B. Anthony hung a picture of Rose on her wall. Elizabeth Cady Stanton publicly eulogized her as indispensable. Unique among the founders of the women's rights movement because she was a Polish immigrant of Jewish background, celebrated orator Ernestine Rose (1810-1882) won the title Queen of the Platform for her brilliant speeches, advocating and linking women's rights, religious freedom, and the abolition of slavery.
