When Esther Morris Headed West: Women, Wyoming, and the Right to Vote

A biography of the first female judge in the United States tells the remarkable tale of how, back in 1869, she fought for a women's right to vote and she believed that a woman could hold a public office.

"This inspiring tale of one woman's gumption and perseverance also recommends the forward-thinking men of Wyoming. Long before "feminist" became a household word, there was Esther Morris, a "large woman with wide-open ideas that needed more room than could be had in New York or Illinois, where she'd come from."" -- Publisher's Weekly
