Summary The book tells a regional and international history of the Australian suffrage campaigns between 1880-1914, uncovering the networks of suffragists built to win the vote and sell its merits abroad. Situated at the nexus of feminist and imperial history, it examines the limits of cross border connection in turn-of-the-century social reform movements.
