Suffragette: The Battle for Equality | David Roberts
5 posts | 3 read | 7 to read
The year 2018 marks a century since the first women won the vote in the United Kingdom, and this book tells the story of their fight. This is a tale of astounding bravery, ingenuity and strength. David's conversational style is accessible and his artwork full of rich detail, bringing to life the many vivid characters of the Suffragette movement - from the militant activist and wheelchair user Rosa May Billinghurst to the world-famous Emmeline Pankhurst.

Before I delve into Rachel Holmes biography of Sylvia Pankhurst - I thought a quick primer of the different factions and a clear political timeline might be in order and this book helped enormously. I learnt about waring factions of the suffragettes and suffragists - the length of the battle to be seen in the voting booth as well as shared in the horror that force feeling must have been. This is book is exquisitely illustrated too.

Loving this book - soaking up the amazing illustrations and learning more about the lesser know characters of the British suffrage movement.
