Austerity

Virginia Woolf & Vanessa Bell
There's great interest at present in Virginia/Vanessa, because of the success of the novel and film 'The Hours', and Marion Dell and Marion Whybrow have much to say that will both satisfy and feed that interest. The theme of their book, that the two sisters, and particularly Virginia, were influenced all their lives by their St Ives childhood, is persuasive. The background picture of the place and their parents and family makes appealing reading. The authors' depiction of character and scene is enhanced by extracts from the sisters' early newspaper, family photographs and letters, diaries and memoirs as well as from Virginia's fiction, all of which combine to bring us into the heart of their...

Eat My Dust
The history of the automobile would be incomplete without considering the influence of the car on the lives and careers of women in the earliest decades of the twentieth century. Illuminating the relationship between women and cars with case studies from across the globe, Eat My Dust challenges the received wisdom that men embraced automobile technology more naturally than did women. Georgine Clarsen highlights the personal stories of women from the United States, Britain, Australia, and colonial Africa from the early days of motoring until 1930. She notes the different ways in which these women embraced automobile technology in their national and cultural context. As mechanics and taxi driv...
The Brass Bell
The life of a remarkable woman and educator, Marion Parsons, is told through the story of a school started in a hen house in a cherry orchard in 1926 that became one of the highest-ranked schools in New York State. The book includes remembrances of those who were there with her during the Great Depression and World War II and the post war boom. The back story tells of her life on the farm along the Genesee Turnpike in Central New York during the late 1800s through World War I. Marion Parsons sacrifices desire for duty and discovers her dreams in ways she would never have imagined.
