The beautiful blog History Imagined has an ongoing feature "Getting Into Character." I had fun imagining interviewing Rosette herself. What she has to say reveals a bit you cannot find in the novel, nor even in the fascinating letters of 1894 that I offer in the Afterword.

"And why should women vote? Because it would be only an act of justice, after all. She is just as much human as a man is . . ."
- Rosette Cordelia Ramsdell Churchill, 1894 (From the interview)
