AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'This is big-picture history. The fundamental right to citizenship is about as big as history can get. In a year that witnessed the conclusion to the commemoration (more often verging on celebration) of the centenary of World War I and its accompanying literature, it is invigorating to read a book that so eloquently and subtly challenges the weary emphasis on the Anzac legend as the defining moment of the first two decades of twentieth-century Australian history. Instead, we have an account of the engrossing struggle of Australian women to win the vote in their own country and the crucial role they played in the British suffrage campaign.' (Introduction)
