Description

Sylvia Pankhurst's career was very different from those of her mother Emmelina or sister Christabel. A promising art student, she was soon a more than active Suffragette, but her insistence on taking the cause to the working women of the East End of London led to her virtual expulsion. Much of the rest of her life was devoted to the causes of anti-fascism, anti-imperialism and the independence of Ethiopia. This book tells her story.
