Join author and independent historian Anne B. Gass

as she shares remarks and historic slides about her historical novel, based on the true story of a

1915 road trip for the suffrage cause.

"We Demand: The Suffrage Road Trip"

"Swedish immigrants Ingeborg Kindstedt and Maria Kindberg visit San Francisco in the summer of 1915, planning to buy a car and explore the country.  On impulse, they offer to bring with them suffragists heading to Washington, DC, to demand voting rights for women from Congress and the president. Soon they are plunged into a difficult and dangerous journey that pushes them to the very limits of their endurance."
