IRISH WOMEN'S HISTORY; ED. BY ALAN HAYES

This long-awaited collection of new research on Irish women's history studies a broad range of female experience, including work, religion and political activity. Written clearly and concisely, the book covers the largest time-span in Irish women's history to date: from the sixth to the twentieth century. Subjects include religious women in medieval Ireland, nurses, nuns and ladies in the Crimean War, the Irish Women's Workers' Union, infanticide in the 1920s and women workers during the Second World War. -- Publisher description
