This book is a must read for every woman -- and man. Elizabeth Cady Stanton's words are as relevant today as they were when she wrote this speech. Not only is "Solitude of Self" a powerful political treatise, but also a spiritual argument for why everyone in society deserves an equal education. The Paris Press edition is beautiful. It makes the perfect gift for any woman or girl, and should be required reading in every schoolroom in the country!

Elizabeth Cady Stanton's speech embodies my philosophy, my theology and the definition of my own personal sovereignty. Every woman, indeed every person, should read it.

Elizabeth Cady Stanton was way ahead of her times and her ability to articulate the source of true liberation in the deep rootedness in aloneness that isn't different than all perenial liberation teachings is commendable and very inspiring! Hope we're more willing and ready to let in and embrace where she's pointing to than when she delivered this at the end of her very rich life...
