History is Herstory The Sweetest Empire is the story of women's
fight to achieve the vote, told through the lives of six women. It
tells of the enforced labour and child prostitution of Victorian
times, the sufferings of the Suffragettes, the bravery of women
nursing at the Front in WW1, and many other aspects of women's
history. The novel vividly portrays the legal and moral
constrictions that have existed for women from Victorian times
through to the 1960's. The fictional framework encompasses real
people including Emmeline Pankhurst and Emily Davison and is
dedicated to 'successive generations of women who refused to know
their place'. Reviews for Sally Patricia Gardner's novels: (Sally
Gardner) really can write, I was reluctant to finish this lovely
book... Tom Baker Your books are so truthful, I love truth in
everything... Dora Bryan I really liked this book, which tells the
story of hopes and fears, tragedies and achievements. ...Tony Benn
Every woman should read this book and be proud and grateful to
their predecessors who fought so hard to give us the freedom we now
take so much for granted... JR Saunders (Amazon Reviewer) I was
fascinated by this book... Prunella Scales Truly an amazing book
which unites history, psychology, and gender identity issues in an
amazingly engaging story... R.McClelland, Unbound Underground
