In 1880, the California woman safeguarded the Republic by maintaining a morally sound home. Scarcely forty years later, women in the Pacific state won full-fledged citizenship and voting rights of their own. Becoming Citizens shows how this transformation came about. Gullett demonstrates how women's search for a larger public life in the late nineteenth century led to a flourishing women's movement in California.
