Votes for Women, 1860-1928 by Paula Bartley

This volume introduces the key figures involved in the women's suffrage movement and goes on to consider the arguments advanced by those who supported and those who opposed votes for women. The narrative highlights the pace and extent of suffragist and suffragette activity, and explores the response of men towards their campaigns. The suffrage contribution to the First World War is also examined and the author investigates the extent to which women gained the vote as a result of their efforts during the conflict. In the final chapter there is an assessment of the effect of the vote on women's lives between 1918 and 1928.
