The definitive account of the New Zealand suffrage movement, this book remains the only study of how New Zealand became the first country in the world to give women the vote. It tells the fascinating story of the courage and the determination of the early New Zealand feminists, led by the remarkable Kate Sheppard, whose ideas and attitudes are still relevant in the 1980s. Readership: historians of the women's movement; students of political history, and the history of New Zealand.
