Her notorious final act of protest has for decades obscured her extraordinary life. Now, one hundred years on from the first British women winning the vote, this new biography reveals the story of the respectable governess who pivoted towards vandalism and violence in pursuit of female enfranchisement.

When Dreams Come True
Soon after Rosanna Davison spoke publicly for the first time about the fourteen miscarriages she suffered before choosing to have a baby via gestational surrogate, she discovered she was pregnant with identical twin boys, conceived naturally! In this heartfelt and honest memoir, Rosanna reveals her difficult journey to motherhood and examines the stigma and silence that surrounds infertility. From the anguish of her multiple pregnancy losses to the decision to explore surrogacy, as well as the practical and emotional challenges involved in pursuing this route to parenthood, she reveals what it was like to find out she was expecting miracle twins soon after her daughter was born, and how she and her husband adjusted to becoming parents to three children within just months of each other! Shining a light on miscarriage and motherhood, When Dreams Come True is a raw, sincere and ultimately uplifting account of Rosanna's journey to motherhood.
