Hertha is a novel written by Elizabeth Hughes and first published in 1889. The story is set in the late 19th century and follows the life of the titular character, Hertha, a young woman from a wealthy family who rebels against the traditional gender roles of her time. Hertha is passionate about education and women's rights, and she becomes involved in the suffrage movement, fighting for women's right to vote.As Hertha becomes more involved in the suffrage movement, she faces opposition from her family and society at large. Her father disapproves of her activism and wants her to focus on finding a husband, while her mother is more supportive but still worried about the impact Hertha's actions could have on the family's reputation. Hertha's relationships with men also suffer as a result of her activism, as many men are put off by her outspokenness and independence.Despite these challenges, Hertha remains committed to her cause and continues to fight for women's rights. The novel explores themes of gender roles, social expectations, and the struggle for equality, as well as the tensions and conflicts that arise when individuals challenge the norms of their society.Overall, Hertha is a thought-provoking and engaging novel that offers a glimpse into the world of women's suffrage and the challenges faced by those who fought for gender equality in the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
