This reference source guides the reader through the labyrinth of people and organizations that were involved in the women's suffrage movement, drawing on information from a wide range of archival sources, both local and national. The book contains over 400 biographical entries on both women and men involved in the movement between 1866 and 1928 and more than 800 entries on societies in England, Scotland and Wales. It also contains information on methods of organization used in suffrage campaigns throughout the period and the iconography and ephemera thus generated and covers the political developments of the campaign but provides insight into its cultural context, listing novels, plays and films.
