Victoria Woodhull not only ran for president, but worked on Wall Street and hung out with Cornelius Vanderbilt. Gives the notion that all Victorian women were trapped a run for its money.
i think she was a bit too rebellious and quite frankly weird to ever have a chance. Her multiple marriages, her spiritualism and her extended family were too much for most Americans–think Billy Carter.
Too bad she didn’t win. 🙂

A fairytale poet and novelist who writes about morphine addicted soldiers–a winning ticket!

Sounds like someone after my own heart. Up to the morphine-addiction — bummer.

You’d never guess it but the book is really about how a family and their simple acts of kindness change the soldier’s life.
