This is a really great book that really opens your eyes to the use of hokey-pokey snakeoil based teething pain treatments that aren't Tylenol or Motrin based. Or then something else entirely that has nothing to do

In the early 1970s, a German study estimated that women expended as many calories cleaning their coal-mining husbands' work clothes as their husbands did working below ground, arguably making the home as much a site of industrialized work as factories and mines. But while energy studies are beginning to acknowledge the importance of social and historical contexts and to produce more inclusive histories of the unprecedented energy transitions that powered industrialization, women have remained notably absent from these accounts.In a New Light ex... + Read More

One hundred years of feminist activism, from the 1880s to the 1980s, presented multiple paths for women’s search for equality, autonomy, and dignity.

Series: Women’s Suffrage and the Struggle for Democracy Ours by Every Law of Right and Justice Women and the Vote in the Prairie Provinces Hardcover Sarah Carter 9780774861878 $27.95 HISTORY Nov 01, 2020

Many of Canada’s most famous suffragists lived and campaigned in the Prairie provinces, which led the way in granting women the right to vote and hold office. In Ours by Every Law of Right and Justice, Sarah Carter challenges the myth that grateful male legislators simply handed women the vote when it was asked for.

But even as they petitioned for the vote for their sisters, they often approved of that same right being denied to “foreigners” and Indigenous peo... + Read More
