Bring Out The Banners by Trease Geoffrey
An "historical" story about the Suffragette movement. From very different social backgrounds, Fiona Campbell and Lady "Belle" Isherwood share a passionate dedication to the same cause - the campaign of the Suffragettes to win the vote for women. Writer Guy Dangerfield's interest is more objective - the Suffragettes are simply good copy, although his sympathy grows considerably, as he gets to know the two young women. As they enter 1914, the struggle becomes ever more bitter and intense. For Fiona, in particular, the time is fast approaching to stand up and be counted, no matter how frightening the consequences - public condemnation, prison, hunger strikes. And all the time war looms. Geoffrey Trease's first novel "Bows Against the Barons" was published in 1934 and since then he has added over a hundred further titles children's and adult novels, plays, biographies and a seminal work on children's literature, "Tales Out of School". His adventure stories include titles such as "The Arpino Assignment", "Shadow Under the Sea", "The Calabrian Quest" (his one hundredth book) and "Song for a Tattered Flag".| SKU | Unavailable |
