But Few People Are Aware That She Was Also An Outspoken Suffragist, A Tireless Champion Of Miners&#8217; Rights, And One Of The First Women To Run For The U.s. Congress. Raised In A Working-class Mississippi River Town, Margaret&#151;who Was Never Called Molly In Her Lifetime&#151;followed Her Brother To A Rough-and-tumble Colorado Boomtown At A Time When Few Women Dared To Settle In The Then Untamed West. She Married A Silver Miner Who Eventually Struck It Rich, And She Used Her New Wealth And Social Prominence To Further Her Own Education And To Fight For The Rights Of Others, Regardless Of Their Race Or Religious Beliefs. This Vivid Account Of Margaret Brown&#8217;s Remarkable Life From Well-regarded Author Elaine Landau Shows How Much A Strong Woman Could Accomplish, Even At A Time When Few Opportunities Were Available. Archival Photographs And Excerpts From Early-twentieth-century Newspapers And Brown Family Letters Provide A Clear Picture Of This Forward-looking, Energetic Individual And The Society
