We Are But Women: Inspiring Stories of Women in Ireland's History | Historical Nonfiction, Irish Feminism & Women's Rights | Perfect for Book Clubs & History Enthusiasts

We Are But Women sets the history of Irish women in the context of the broad sweep of Irish history, dealing even-handedly with the diverse traditions of unionism and nationalism. Through an examination of exemplar individuals and organisations, the book traces the growth of Irish awareness of such `women's issues' as emancipation, divorce and abortion. Above all, it acknowledges the key role played by women in finding a solution to the Irish Question.
