Bring Out the Banners

This is a typically engrossing and accurate 'historical' story, by the master of the genre, about the Suffragette movement. Lady Belle Isherwood and Fiona Campbell are from very different backgrounds, but they're both fighting for the right to vote.

Two young women from very different backgrounds become unlikely friends as they struggle for women's right to vote in the approach to the First World War.

Description
