Sturdy Oak

Sturdy Oak is a composite novel created in 1916 by fourteen prominent American authors, each contributing their talents to a collective narrative. Published serially during the autumn campaign of 1917, the book addresses themes of American life while supporting the suffrage movement, with all proceeds directed towards this cause. The novel is notable for its collaborative nature and its aim to engage readers in the social issues of the time without overly emphasizing the suffrage question.
