Containing 250 inspiring women, three sheroic dogs and one
heartbroken barmaid from Easton, this is a bursting compendium of
brilliant women from pin makers to police chiefs, from workhouse
inmates to secret agents who helped to shape Bristol into the
vibrant city it is today. The book contains 30 commissioned
illustrations and spans almost 900 years from Princess Eleanor of
Brittany (1184-1241) who was imprisoned in Bristol Castle for 39
years by her uncle King John who stole the throne from her. The
most recent entry is author Helen Dunmore who died in 2017. Author
and editor Jane Duffus has compiled the book on behalf of Bristol
Women's Voice and many of the entries are provided by guest
writers, women historians and academics. It's the most
comprehensive book about Bristol women to date and seeks to
celebrate the less well-known women of our past as well as the key
big names.
