Lucretia Mott 1793-1880 is a biography written by John Greenleaf Whittier about the life of Lucretia Mott, a prominent American Quaker, abolitionist, and women's rights activist. The book covers Mott's life from her birth in 1793 to her death in 1880, detailing her upbringing, religious beliefs, and activism. Whittier explores Mott's involvement in the abolitionist movement and her work as a conductor on the Underground Railroad, helping enslaved people escape to freedom. The book also delves into Mott's role in the women's suffrage movement, including her participation in the Seneca Falls Convention in 1848 and her leadership in the American Equal Rights Association. Throughout the book, Whittier highlights Mott's dedication to social justice and her unwavering commitment to fighting for the rights of marginalized communities. He also touches on the challenges Mott faced as a woman in a male-dominated society and the criticism she received for her beliefs and actions. Overall, Lucretia Mott 1793-1880 is a comprehensive and inspiring biography that sheds light on the life and legacy of one of America's most influential social justice activists.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
