"In this deeply researched biography, Tyler L. Boyd finally brings us the full man, putting into context Burn's singular act of conscience, helping us to understand how one person can make a difference." - Elaine Weiss, author of The Woman's Hour: The Great Fight to Win the Vote
"As we approach the 100th anniversary of the ratification of the Nineteenth Amendment next year, Americans are discovering the history of the woman suffrage movement and the stories of the Americans who led it to victory...Works like this will keep their memory alive." - U.S. Senator Marsha Blackburn (R-Tennessee)
"This book debunks the myths, repeated many times over the years, about Burn and that hot August day. It is a valuable addition to history, to have this story told, and by a family member who researched the topic meticulously." - Former Tennessee House Speaker Beth Harwell, from her foreword
