This anthology reveals the long and bloody history of women getting the vote.

Joyce Marlow has sought to go beyond the obvious, particularly beyond London, to show the ordinary women - middle and working class - who had the courage to stand up and be counted; and just as likely hectored or pelted with eggs.
