Karen J. Hicks Appears at Book Signing in Las Vegas Today

LAS VEGAS, Nov. 3, 2014 /PRNewswire/ Author Karen J. Hicks announced today that she will be signing copies of her novel The Coming Woman at Books or Books in Las Vegas, NV today, November 15, 2014 at 1:00PM.

The Coming Woman, by Karen J. Hicks, is a novel based on the life of feminist Victoria Woodhull, the first woman to run for U.S. President. Victoria Woodhull had the courage to enter the political arena before women had won the battle to vote. This is a timely, relevant, and compelling look at one of the women who paved the way for women like Hillary Clinton to claim their place on the national stage and in our history books.

"It is a riveting account of an amazing woman and her struggle for justice and human dignity, told in an engaging and eminently readable style." - Tim Wise, author, White Like Me: Reflections on Race from a Privileged Son.

"The Coming Woman is a great read and a long overdue biography written beautifully by Ms. Hicks. Victoria Woodhull comes alive in each and every paragraph; a vital strength and spirit in Woodhull propels her to run for president of the United States when women weren't even allowed to vote! What a woman, what a book! An inspiring must read for every woman and any adventurous men! Thank you, Ms. Hicks for finally telling her colorful story." Jennifer Lee Pryor, author of Tarnished Angel: A Memoir and President, Indigo, Inc.

"What kind of confidence would it take for a woman to buck the old boy's club of politics in 1872? More than 140 years pre-Hillary, there was Victoria Woodhull. This book takes you back with a breathtaking, present-tense bird's eye view into a time...I couldn't put it down." Ruth Buzzi, Golden Globe Award winner and Television Hall of Fame inductee
