1868ref. 020291New York: Susan B. Anthony Proprietor; R.J. Johnson Publisher 1868. Wraps. Good. Side sewn journal. Approximately 12 ¼ by 9 inches. 16 pp. arly issue of the Revolution a groundbreaking and influential newspaper produced by Elizabeth Cady Stanton Susan B. Anthony and Parker Pillsbury. The paper was established to provide a voice to activists and suffragists such as Stanton and Anthony whose voices were marginalized by the mainstream press as well as many abolitionist publications with whom they had been previously allied. Anthony and Stanton advocated for an amendment giving suffrage to women along with the amendment sponsored by abolitionists that would give Black men the right to vote. Many abolitionists actively discouraged Stanton and Anthony from pursuing their amendment until the amendment enfranchising Black men passed creating a rift in the abolitionist movement as well as the women's suffrage movement. Feeling betrayed by abolitionists and Republicans who initially supported them they established the Revolution with financial help from George Francis Train a Democrat who supported women's rights but was openly racist. As the name indicates The Revolution adopted a combative radical tone with Stanton and others unafraid to take on critics. The paper openly discussed sexual and physical abuse in marriage and advocated better divorce laws that would offer women a way to escape abusive marriages. In 1869 the paper broke with Train who had supplied very little of the funding he initially offered. It published until 1872 struggling to make expenses along the way.

This issue with a lengthy column editorial correspondence written by Elizabeth Cady Stanton wherein she discusses her time in Philadelphia and Pennsylvania as well as the case of Hester Vaughn. There are two other lengthy articles on Hester Vaughn one written by Elizabeth Cady Stanton. Vaughan was tried and convicted of murdering her newborn baby to which she gave birth alone. The circumstances around the birth and death the child were murky and she was sentenced to death by an all male jury. The Revolution took up her case seeking her pardon and inferred she was raped. Stanton and Anthony attracted a lot of publicity to the case. Vaughn was eventually pardoned by the governor of Pennsylvania and sent back to England. The cause proved a bit divisive for Stanton and Anthony and the Revolution with modern historians asserting it helped to set back their work for women's suffrage. FAIR condition.
