Pankhurst
Emmeline Pankhurst (1858-1928) was a leading suffragette and founder in 1903 of the Women’s Social and Political Union (WSPU). She was incensed by the refusal of the Independent Labour Party to admit women. In reaction she founded the all-female WSPU. Both Emmeline and her daughter Christabel were imprisoned many times for the political stance and militancy, with which they fought for the women’s right to vote. Her battle-cry, ‘remove the political disability of sex’, is as relevant today as it was explosive then.
The Story of Mrs Pankhurst
"From childhood Emmeline Pankhurst began to fight for women's right to vote. Her great personal beauty and magnetism inspired her followers, of both sexes, to join her in the battle - a battle which included violence and led to imprisonment and the horrors of forcible feeding, before success came in the 1914-18 war"--Jacket
