About this audiobook
Some things are worth doing—even when the cost is great
In 1853, Abigail Scott was a nineteen-year-old school teacher in Oregon Territory when she married Ben Duniway.
Marriage meant giving up on teaching, but Abigail always believed she was meant to be more than a good wife and
mother. When Abigail becomes the primary breadwinner for her growing family, what she sees as a working woman
appalls her—and prompts her to devote her life to fighting for the rights of women, including the right to vote.
Based on a true story, Something Worth Doing will resonate with modern women who still grapple with the pull
between career and family, finding their place in the public sphere, and dealing with frustrations and prejudices when
competing in male-dominated spaces.
