The Women Who Built Bristol: Volume Two

More about the book

Behind every strong city, there is an even stronger army of women creating the bricks with which to build it. Following the success of Volume One, in Volume Two of The Women Who Built Bristol, we meet a further 250 inspiring females who fought tooth and nail to shape our city and the wider world. Olympians rub shoulders with boot makers; suffragists stand beside grocers; scientists are as one with artists. Includes one washed up whale, two plucky daredevils, 38 women called Mary and 1,955 donated eggs. And much, much more besides.
