The Wrong and Peril of Woman Suffrage (1909)

The Wrong and Peril of Woman Suffrage is a book written by James Monroe Buckley in 1909. The book is a critique of the women's suffrage movement and argues against granting women the right to vote. Buckley, a Methodist bishop and editor of the Christian Advocate, presents his arguments from a religious and moral perspective. He asserts that women are not suited for political participation and that granting them the right to vote would lead to the breakdown of traditional gender roles and the family. Buckley also argues that women's suffrage would lead to increased government corruption and the erosion of democracy. The book was written during a time when the women's suffrage movement was gaining momentum in the United States, and it provides insight into the opposition that the movement faced. The Wrong and Peril of Woman Suffrage is a significant historical document that sheds light on the attitudes towards women's suffrage in the early 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
