The Bob Cesca Show

The Best of 2025: Author Lorissa Rinehart

We'll be back with new episodes starting Tuesday January 6. Meantime, Lorissa is the author of the forthcoming book Winning the Earthquake: How Jeannette Rankin Defied All Odds to Become the First Woman in Congress [https://amzn.to/3Lpl0As]. This is an extraordinarily important book for myriad reasons, including the fact that you probably never heard of the first woman to be elected to Congress, or that this same woman introduced the bill that would eventually become the 19th Amendment, guaranteeing the right to vote for women. And there's so much more to Jeannette Rankin's story. It officially goes on sale November 4, Election Day.
