Alice in Wonderland
Retelling of the classic in which a little girl falls down a rabbit hole and discovers a world of nonsensical and amusing characters.
The Working Life of Women in the Seventeenth Century
First published in 1968. This investigation was undertaken with a view to discovering the actual circumstances of women’s lives in the Seventeenth Century. The Seventeenth Century itself forms a sort of watershed between two very widely differing eras in the history of Englishwomen— the Elizabethan and the Eighteenth Century. It demonstrates the conditions under which the obscure mass of women live and fulfil their duties as human beings and focuses on one aspect of their lives, namely the place of women in the economic organisation of society.

The Real Alice
Together Lewis Carroll and his Alice have been eulogised, criticised, psychoanalysed. Their phantasmagoric dreamworld has fired the imaginations and fed the minds of poets, philosophers, musicians and artists the world over -- they have proved inspirational to creators as James Joyce, Lennon and McCartney, W.H. Auden, Walter de la Mare, Arthur Rackham and Salvador Dali. Now, for the first time, Alice Liddell is the subject of a major biography. Immaculately researched and enhanced by 150 fine illustrations, many of them previously unpublished or rare, The Real Alice sheds a fascinating new light on the person who was Lewis Carroll's dream-child and will give pleasure both as a biography and as an addition to the wealth of Carrolliana already in existence.

The Women's Suffrage Movement
This widely acclaimed book has been described by History Today as a 'landmark in the study of the women's movement'. It is the only comprehensive reference work to bring together in one volume the wealth of information available on the women's movement. Drawing on national and local archival sources, the book contains over 400 biographical entries and more than 800 entries on societies in England, Scotland and Wales. Easily accessible and rigorously cross-referenced, this invaluable resource covers not only the political developments of the campaign but provides insight into its cultural context, listing novels, plays and films.
Generations of Women Historians
This collection focuses on generations of early women historians, seeking to identify the intellectual milieu and professional realities that framed their lives. It moves beyond treating them as simply individuals and looks to the social and intellectual forces that encouraged them to study history and, at the same time, would often limit the reach and define the nature of their study. This collection of essays speaks to female practitioners of history over the past four centuries that published original histories, some within a university setting and some outside. By analysing the values these early women scholars faced, readers can understand the broader social values that led women historians to exist as a unit apart from the career path of their male colleagues.
