In post–Civil War America, Victoria Woodhull rises from modest beginnings to become a Wall Street broker, newspaper publisher, and women’s rights advocate. With her sister Tennie, she navigates political ambition and public controversy, forging alliances with prominent figures while battling scandal tied to her connection with Reverend Henry Ward Beecher. Her journey blends personal determination with the struggle for gender equality, set against a backdrop of social upheaval and reform.
