Excerpt from No Surrender
Once upon a time God made a fair green valley in the North Country. The surrounding hills were wooded with noble trees, the green pastures were watered by fresh clear streams. Overhead the blue arch of heaven was swept by sweet, clean, pine-scented winds. The people of this country were thrifty and industrious, spinning and delving, sowing and reaping, and, taken all round, as happy and contented as any on the face of this earth, where men and women are born each to their share of educational sorrow, as surely as the sparks fly upward.

'No Surrender was first published at the height of the women's suffrage movement in Britain and centres on the involvement in the campaign of Jenny Clegg, a Lancashire mill-girl, and Mary O'Neil, a minor aristocrat. The novel, which offers a rare literary insight into the often heroic activities of its proponents, came out in November 1911.'
