Suffragette Heaven!

If you have ever been interested in the campaign waged by the women's suffrage movement at the beginning of the last century, then this book is the one for you. Packed full of hard to track down literature written about and by and against the women's movement, it's essential reading. The book is well-structured; the introduction giving you enough background to the suffrage campaign without overloading you with information. Once you're into the book, the short stories, poems and novel extracts will give you a taste for this fascinating time period. Brilliant!
