But while women organized, protested, and sought change from this convention all the way to the passage of the 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution in 1920, a more profound change was occurring on the western frontier. Evolution Toward Equality analyzes the many conditions necessary for this fundamental societal change where women in the West received voting, property, and legal rights long before their eastern sisters. Neal proposes three stages that made this evolutionary change possible: rejection of traditional role models, finding new and often unexpected role models, and integrating women into the public sphere. She explores factors of the western environment which opened new opportunities and attitudes for both women and men to accept steps toward equality. 207 pages, paperback Other products in the category <A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com/nwhp/Category197" TITLE="U.S.History Resources">U.S.History Resources</A>: <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/nwhp/Product4929 TITLE="Always Another Dawn: A Novel">Always Another Dawn: A Novel</A> -- Always Another Dawn: A Novel <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/nwhp/Product5036 TITLE="Band of Sisters">Band of Sisters</A> -- Band of Sisters American Women at War in Iraq <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/nwhp/Product4993 TITLE="Eleanor Roosevelt Poster">Eleanor Roosevelt Poster</A> <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/nwhp/Product4814 TITLE="Warriors Don't Cry">Warriors Don't Cry</A> -- A Story of Moving History Forward <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/nwhp/Product4992 TITLE="Women Who Dare Eleanor Roosevelt">Women Who Dare Eleanor Roosevelt</A> -- Eleanor Roosevelt - A Woman Who Dare <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/nwhp/Product4815 TITLE="The Giants Wore White Gloves DVD">The Giants Wore White Gloves DVD</A> -- When Racism Closed the Schools: An Unexpected Battle <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/nwhp/Product4713 TITLE="100 American Women">100 American Women</A> -- Who Shaped American History <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/nwhp/Product4442 TITLE="2005 Women Change America Gazettes set of 25">2005 Women Change America Gazettes set of 25</A> -- 2005 Women Change America Gazettes set of 25 <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/nwhp/Product4738 TITLE="Adventurous Women">Adventurous Women</A> -- Eight True Stories About Women Who Made a Difference <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/nwhp/Product4736 TITLE="Changing The Face of Power">Changing The Face of Power</A> -- Women in the U.S. Senate <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/nwhp/Product4778 TITLE="Different Voices, Women In United States History">Different Voices, Women In United States History</A> -- Different Voices, Women In United States History <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/nwhp/Product4421 TITLE="Dvd:Fine And Long Tradition">Dvd:Fine And Long Tradition</A> -- DVD:FINE AND LONG TRADITION <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/nwhp/Product4791 TITLE="Eleanor Roosevelt Volume 1">Eleanor Roosevelt Volume 1</A> -- Volume 1 1848-1933 <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/nwhp/Product4793 TITLE="Eleanor Roosevelt Volume 2">Eleanor Roosevelt Volume 2</A> -- Volume 2 1933-1938 <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/nwhp/Product4819 TITLE="Feminists Who Changed American 1963-1975">Feminists Who Changed American 1963-1975</A> -- Who Are The Second Wave?
