About this book
Reviews
“It gives a broad, energetic, varied picture of a reasoned struggle for the turning of an ancient and outdated tide. … With its models for change this book will inspire, as well as inform. It’s currently the most seminal book on maritime women’s work.” (Jo Stanley, The International Journal of Maritime History, Vol. 28 (4), 2016)
