I enjoyed this book, which is informative, entertaining, and inspiring, and includes enough information about the general and social history of the period to be suitable for any readers, even those who don’t generally read history. At the same time it contains a wealth of information on the local history of women in Eastbourne, which will satisfy those trying to get a picture of the era, be it for personal interest, research, or as part of an ongoing project (Writers, I’m looking at you). I recommend this title to anybody interested in any of those aspects, and I will be checking other titles in the series.

This wonderful book by Gill Rossini showcases the extraordinary roles various women both famous and unknown have played in making the city the wonderfully diverse place it is today. Over a hundred years of history are encased in this book, which includes many never before seen photographs and stories. One of the greatest cities in the world, and this book celebrates it in grand style!

This is a very informative and interesting book looking at mainly the last 150 years, it covers various subjects from health to prisons and work life to education. It’s not just about middle class women who can attend university it’s is about many classes of women and how life has affected them in Oxford.
