What is the best method for selecting records in a user-defined range, e.g., between 5'5" and 5'9"?

Since the value contains the single-quote text delimiter, I'm not sure how to define the search value. For instance, the following statement does not work:

select * from member where height between '5'5"' and '5'9"'

Thanks."
