Millicent Garrett Fawcett
‘Courage calls to courage everywhere’ is the best-known phrase associated with Millicent Garrett Fawcett (1847-1929), the leading UK suffragist and campaigner of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. But what is the source of her quote, and what is its context? This book reproduces Fawcett’s essential speeches, pamphlets and newspaper columns to tell the story of her dynamic contribution to public life.

What I Remember

In her book 'Women's Suffrage; A Short History of a Great Movement', Fawcett chronicles the history of the campaign for women's rights, comparing the tactics of the (pacifist) NUWSS and the (militant) WSPU. The WSPU cry in every election was "Keep the Liberal out," not, as they asserted, from party motives, but because the Government of the day, and the Government alone, had the power to pass a Suffrage Bill; and as long as any government declined to take u...
