On May 15, 1869, a pivotal chapter in American history began when Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton founded the National Woman Suffrage Association (NWSA) in New York City. Every election in which a woman casts a vote carries a thread back to that day in 1869. It is a reminder that rights often have to be demanded before they are granted, and that the work of demanding them requires people willing to build something lasting.

Local history is not just about the past. It is about understanding who we are, how our communities were shaped, and what has been carried forward across generations. Each new book published today adds another layer to that ongoing conversation, giving readers the chance to see familiar places through unfamiliar eyes.

I surprised my mother @evelyntxmo with the first copy 😍She waited 91 years for this day. This is the true story of her parents and the institution they fought for during segregation. On Juneteenth 2026, this Texas landmark will celebrate 100 years.

People are always trying to stump us when we say our goal is to write about every single town in America (no matter how small, some don't even exist any more) . This week we were asked to find a book about Kilgore, TX. And we DID. So we've decided to make this a recurring Friday series.
.
Comment your obscure town and maybe next week, we will find a book for you.
