What did it mean to be a 'rebel woman' in the interwar years?
Taking the form of a multiple biography, this book traces the
struggles, passions and achievements of a set of 'fearlessly
determined' women who stopped at nothing to make their mark in the
traditionally masculine environments of mountaineering, politics,
engineering and journalism. From the motorist Claudia Parsons to
the 'star' reporter Margaret Lane, the mountaineer Dorothy Pilley
and the journalist Shiela Grant Duff, the women charted in this
book challenged the status quo in all walks of life, alongside
writing vivid, eye-witness accounts of their adventures. Recovering
their voices across a range of texts including novels, poems,
journalism and diaries, Rebel women between the wars reveals their
inch by inch gains won through courageous and sometimes
controversial and dangerous actions. -- .
