Trade paperback. Zustand: Very good. Presumed First Edition, First printing. 64 pages. Illustrations (most in color). Format is approximately 10.25 inches by 8.25 inches. Cover has slight wear and soiling. Ink notation at top of first page. Jenni Calder (née Daiches) (born 1941) is a Scottish literary historian, and arts establi…shment figure. She was married to Angus Calder, and is the daughter of David Daiches. She also once ran the Edinburgh Book Festival. The National Museum incorporates the collections of the former National Museum of Antiquities of Scotland. As well as the national collections of Scottish archaeological finds and medieval objects, the museum contains artifacts from around the world, encompassing geology, archaeology, natural history, science, technology, art, and world cultures. From the rocks that shaped the landscape to millennium multimedia -- study the objects and meet the people of Scotland's past and present. Excellent descriptions of gallery displays and suggested routes assure you a well-informed visit as well as a memorable and enjoyable one. The National Museum of Scotland, Edinburgh, Scotland, was formed in 2006 with the merger of the new Museum of Scotland, with collections relating to Scottish antiquities, culture and history, and the adjacent Royal Museum (so renamed in 1995), with collections covering science and technology, natural history, and world cultures. The two connected buildings stand beside each other on Chambers Street, by the intersection with the George IV Bridge, in central Edinburgh. The museum is part of National Museums Scotland. The two buildings retain distinctive characters: the Museum of Scotland is housed in a modern building opened in 1998, while the former Royal Museum building was begun in 1861, and partially opened in 1866, with a Victorian Venetian Renaissance facade and a grand central hall of cast iron construction that rises the full height of the building.

Trade paperback. Zustand: Very good. Presumed First Edition, First printing. 96 pages. Illustrations. Index of People's Names. Index of Organizations and Associations. This is one of the Scot's Lives series. Leah Leonora Leneman (3 March 1944 - 26 December 1999) was a popular historian and cookery writer. She wrote about Scottis…h history including the struggle for women's suffrage. Her Ph.D. thesis became her first history book, Living in Atholl, based on the archives at Blair Atholl castle, which documented a society transitional between highland and lowland ways of life against the backdrop of the Jacobite rebellions. 17th and 18th century Presbyterian churches pried into their parishioners' sex lives and called them to account, while Scots lawyers argued over which relationships were marriages "by habit and repute" (entailing property rights and legitimate children) and which were fornication. Girls in Trouble and Sin in the City brought these aspects of social history and women's history in Scotland to a wide audience. Divorce, separation from cruelty, and re-marriage were available to Scots of modest means in an era when it was exceptional in England and Ireland Leneman wrote the first, on Elsie Inglis. This expanded into In the Service of Life a full-length account of Inglis' remarkable career during the Great War, raising a series of mobile battlefront hospitals staffed entirely by women, conducting advanced surgery and enduring adventures and privations across wartime Europe. Many of those volunteers were from a suffrage background or were politicized by their experience. The Leah Leneman Prize is awarded annually to writers in Scotland for an essay on women's or gender history. The popular depiction of the women's suffrage movement is often London-based with 'suffragettes' chaining themselves to railings, marching for the cause, breaking windows, getting arrested and being forcibly fed by prison authorities. But the movement was more widespread than this might suggest. Throughout the country, as support grew, Scottish women were also playing an important part in the campaign for the parliamentary vote. This book tells the story of the women's suffrage movement in Scotland, from the early Victorian era to the winning of limited rights in 1918. It is a remarkable record of lively, articulate and strong-minded individuals, from all walks of life, united by the fact that they were not regarded as equal citizens - an injustice that led, for some, to uncharacteristic law-breaking and spells in prison. Women's suffrage was the seeking of the right of women to vote in elections. It was carried out by both men and women, it was a very elongated and gruelling campaign that went on for 86 years before the Representation of the People Act 1918 was introduced on 6 February 1918, which provided a few women with the right to vote. One of the first three UK societies supporting women's rights to vote was established in 1867, in Scotland's capital, the Edinburgh National Society for Women's Suffrage. Scottish women like Flora Drummond had leadership roles with the Pankhursts, in the London WSPU headquarters, and celebrated the Scottish community of activists on their release from prison. Others like Frances Parker from New Zealand, were organizing the West of Scotland WSPU and like others was infamously subjected to force feeding orally and rectally in Scottish and British prisons. Parker was also arrested when trying to disrupt David Lloyd George from giving a speech in the Music Hall in Aberdeen.
