- Summary:
- Annotation "The women's suffrage movement is central to any study of gender and political history. Votes for Women provides an innovative and unrivalled re-examination of the movement, presenting new perspectives and dimensions which challenge existing literature on this subject." "This book charts the history of the movement in Britain from the nineteenth century to the postwar period, assessing important figures such as Emmeline Pankhurst and the militant wing and Millicent Garrett Fawcett, leader of the constitutional wing. The stories of forgotten women, such as Lily Maxwell and Lady Constance Lytton are told as well as Jennie Baines's link with international suffrage movements."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
