Reviews

'Connelly's biography is well-written and provides a clear and accessible historical background essential for understanding Sylvia Pankhurst's life and contains much new research. More importantly, Connelly's political awareness allows her to shed light on areas that have formerly been problematic to those writing about Sylvia.' -- Jacqueline Mulhallen, counterfire.org 'All in all, an outstanding overview and an excellent read.' -- Paul Donovan, Morning Star


'Offers a convincing evaluation of Pankhurst's role in Marxist politics after 1918.' --History Today


‘Offers a convincing evaluation of Pankhurst’s role in Marxist politics after 1918.’ --History Today
