Inhaltsangabe

"It is not right for women, any more than for men, to have characters of tepid milk and water, to be incapable of a divine rage and to be impotent to resist oppression" Christabel Pankhurst, 1913

In this meticulous book, Martin Pugh has written the first full account of the lives of Emmeline Pankhurst and her daughters Christabel, Sylvia and Adela. This is the story of an extraordinary family whose work for the rights of women challenged the very heart of the political and social establishment. THE PANKHURSTS draws on original research, building together a compelling portrait of the triumphs and tragedies of this often dysfunctional, but always exceptional, family.
