Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. This is the first dedicated biography of the extraordinary Irish woman, Eva Gore-Booth. Gore-Booth rejected her aristocratic heritage choosing to live and work amongst the poorest classes in industrial Manchester. Her work on behalf of barmaids, circus acrobats, flower sellers and pit-brow lasses is traced in this book. During one impressive campaign Gore-Booth orchestrated the defeat of Winston Churchill. Gore-Booth published volumes of poetry, philosophical prose and plays, becoming a respected and prolific author of her time and part of W.B. Yeats literary circle. The story of Gore-Booths life is captivating. Her close bond with her sister, an iconic Irish nationalist, provides a new insight into Countess Markieviczs personal life. Gore-Booths life story vividly traces her experiences of issues such as militant pacifism during the Great War, the case for the reprieve of Roger Casements death sentence, sexual equality in the workplace and the struggle for Irish independence. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…
