Description:

In April 1916, Nell Richardson and Alice Burke set out from New York City in a little yellow car, embarking on a bumpy, muddy, unmapped journey ten thousand miles long. They took with them a teeny typewriter, a tiny sewing machine, a wee black kitten, and a message for Americans all across the country: Votes for Women! The women s suffrage movement was in full swing, and Nell and Alice would not let anything keep them from spreading the word about equal voting rights for women.
