Unstoppable: The Victoria Woodhull Story
In 1872, in an America that denied women the right to vote, Victoria Woodhull dared to run for president. She was jailed on Election Day.
From a struggling childhood to the center of New York’s political and financial elite, Woodhull battles scandal, ridicule, betrayal, and impossible odds, as she fights to claim power in a world determined to silence women. Alongside her brilliant and fiercely loyal sister Tennessee, she challenges the political establishment, confronts hypocrisy, and risks everything to demand equality. Unstoppable reveals the real woman hidden behind a century of myths. It is a sweeping historical novel about ambition, resilience, and one woman’s determination to change America long before the nation was ready to listen.
