Publisher's Synopsis
This work on women's suffrage is offered as a revised edition to celebrate the book's 21st anniversary, which contains a new introduction by Jill Liddington. The book show how radical suffragists took the message to women at grassroots level, and to the Co-operative Guilds and the trade unions. It is based upon a wealth of unpublished material, local newspaper accounts, diaries, handwritten minute books, forgotten biographies and interviews with the last surviving suffragists, and those who remember their work at first-hand.
