"Using a combination of primary research and published works, A Social History of Women in Ireland 1870-1970 explores the role and status of women in Ireland. It examines lifestyle options available to women during this period as well as providing an overview of the forces working for change within Irish society. In bringing together a wide-ranging portfolio of material A Social History of Women in Ireland 1870-1970 fills an important gap in the literature of the period, touching as it does on politics, sociology, marriage patterns; religion, education and work." "Rosemary Cullen Owens not merely traces these injustices but also the campaigns fought to right them. She locates these struggles in the wider social context in which they took place. This book provides a missing piece in the jigsaw of modern Irish history."--BOOK JACKET.
