Exploring the lives of Beatrice Webb and her eight sisters, this volume presents a vivid picture of the experiences of a group of upper middle class women in England at the turn of the century. Emphasizing that "sisterhood" provided the only security for the Potters in a society which made women socially, legally, and economically subordinate to men, Caine offers many invaluable insights into the particular problems and sufferings that women faced during this period.
