Description

Their Lives and Times brings together in one place a lively mix of perspectives, including previously published work and new research, literary and scholarly work. It will be equally at home in an academic setting or on the bookshelf of any reader interested in the diversity of women's experiences and the ways in which these experiences have been explored in new research and literature.
