    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    A collection of essay, addresses, and magazine articles by the early-twentieth-century attorney and activist illuminate her militant views on feminism, suffrage, pacifism, and socialism.

    A masterful and sensitive presentation of one of the major thinkers of the Progressive Movement and one of the most significant theoreticians of the New Feminism....It is an invaluable collection for anyone interested in the evolution of American radicalism, in feminism and women's history, in the Progressive Movement and its fate in the 1920s.
