Women Win The Vote 6 February 1918

More about the book

Age range 9 to 14 After a long and active suffragette campaign the Representation of the People Act 1918 saw British women over 30 gain the vote. Many Women dedicated their lives to the cause from the famous political activist Emily Pankhurst to the simplest working women and mothers. This highly accessible series explores key dates in history: what happened on the day and the background and consequences of the event. Each title tells the story in a crisp, fast-paced style and colour and black and white photos, map and timeline support the text. The books are perfect quick-read introductions to the dramatic events, and equally useful as high interest / low reading level books.
