Uncontrollable Women: Radicals, Reformers & Revolutionaries by Nan Sloane
Uncontrollable Women is a history of radical, reformist, and revolutionary women between the outbreak of the French Revolution in 1789 and the passing of the Great Reform Act in 1832. Very few of them are well-known today; some were unknown even in their own day. All of them contributed something to the world we now inhabit.
At a time when women were supposed to leave politics to men, they spoke, wrote, marched, organized, asked questions, challenged power structures, sometimes went to prison and even died. History has not usually been kind to them, and thy have frequently been pushed into asides or footnotes, dismissed as secondary, or spoken over, for, or through by men and sometimes by other women
In this book, they take centger stage in both their own stories and those of others, and in doing so bring different voices to the more familiar accounts of the period. These women and many others played a part in developing political ideas and freedoms as we know them today, and some fought battles which still need to be won or raised questions that are still unresolved.
These are their stories.
