Women pushed for change. Eventually, they addressed audiences to end slavery and promote woman suffrage. Some of these reformers entered America's earliest law schools, becoming lawyers, judges, and elected officials who celebrated their hard-won right to vote in 1920. Today, Boston women practice law and hold offices at the highest levels.During its Centennial year, New England Law|Boston, in conjunction with the Boston Women's Heritage Trail, brings to life the stories of some remarkable women who continue to inspire a commitment to women's full participation in legal education, the legal profession, and elected and appointed office.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
