Beskrivning

The third set in this successful series focuses on four iconic female political figures from the Victorian era: Queen Victoria (1819-1901), Florence Nightingale (1820-1910), Annie Besant (1847-1933) and Millicent Garrett Fawcett (1847-1929).Wide-ranging political issues are addressed such as women's suffrage, birth control and female education- contentious topics as women sought to improve their legal, educational, political, marital and economic status. Carefully selected extracts from biographies, memoirs, diaries, private letters and other ephemera reveal how these iconic women were viewed by their contemporaries.
