Hanna Sheehy-Skeffington: Irish Feminist - Paperback
by Leah Levenson (Author), Jerry H. Natterstad (Author)
Hanna Sheehy-Skeffington chronicles the life and activism of one of Ireland's most influential feminists. Sheehy-Skeffington was a nationalist, pacifist, socialist, and above all, a tireless advocate for women's rights. Her career spanned nearly five decades, during which she fought for suffrage, social justice, and Irish independence.
This book explores her unwavering commitment to equality, her role in shaping Ireland's political landscape, and her struggles against a society resistant to change. From her involvement in the Irish Women's Franchise League to her outspoken opposition to militarism, Sheehy-Skeffington's story is one of resilience and determination. The biography also delves into her personal life, including her partnership with Francis Sheehy-Skeffington, who shared her progressive ideals.
