| Description: |
Using photographs from the Museum of London Collection, Diane Atkinson tells the story of women's struggle to win the vote in Britain. This book considers the suffragists and their constitutional campaign and in particular the role of the working-class suffragists in the north of England. |
| Synopsis: |
In 1918 women in Britain finally won the vote after a long and determined fight. The struggle of these courageous women of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries is examined in Atkinson's new study. The author compares and contrasts two very different campaigns: the battle waged by the militant Suffragettes and the persistent though less well-known activities of the Suffragists who campaigned peacefully but doggedly for the vote. A handful of fascinating and previously unpublished photographs from the Museum of London Collection are dispersed throughout the text. |
