A clear overview of the suffragette movement June 3, 2003

Melanie Philips writes with great clarity and covers a broad subject admirably. It's an extremely readable book (I sat and read it in about three sessions) and you will certainly want to know more about some of the characters who have had such a strong impression on the women's movement. In fact, that's its only weakness, leaving you wanting more on some areas, but I guess the book would have had to be twice the length. As it is, it leaves you feeling ten times more informed about the women's movement and has a very thought-provoking final chapter. I entertained/bored my husband and friends for hours debating some of the issues raised.
