Add to basketFirst edition. 24 pages of titles, Preface, Introduction and Contents, then 381 pages + 3 of ads, an illustrated frontispiece and a further 6 black and white illustrated plates. Publisher's review copy, stamped as such to the title page, the reviewer was militant suffragette, W.S.P.U. member and fellow author, Evelyn Sharp, with… her ownership inscription in ink to the front endpaper dated 1917, and passages to the text highlighted in pencil. The book is quite firmly bound in the publisher's green cloth, lettered in faded white to the spine, the cloth is slightly marked and rubbed, the spine is sunned and the extremities are bumped. The text block is age toned, slightly marked and dusty, with a few dog-eared page corners and slight cracking at points. The first of three works by Metcalfe, herself an active suffragist, on the question of women's suffrage, this a history which becomes increasingly detailed during the period of which Metcalfe has first-hand knowledge, with particular emphasis on the activities of the militant suffragettes. This, a superb association copy, originally owned by one of the more famous suffragettes.
