Product Information
Held back by the property qualifications needed to vote and stand as candidates in a range of local elections, female activists and feminists nonetheless formed local pressure groups to make their voices heard. When the property qualification was removed in the 1890s, they staked their claim to a formal engagement in public life, and by the early 20th century there were over 1000 female poor law Guardians. This book offers a reappraisal of the role of women in the politics and practice of welfare in late Victorian and early Edwardian England. Focusing on the Lancashire mill town of Bolton, it traces the emergence of a core of female social and political activists from the 1860s and analyses their achievements as they rose from the humble origins of a workhouse visiting committee to become pivotal players in the formulation and implementation of local welfare policy after 1894. Using a unique working diary written by the activist and female poor law Guardian Mary Haslam, the book portrays these Bolto

Reviews
"In this examination of the life and papers of Mary Haslam, poor law guardian and leader of the women's movement in Bolton, Steven King sets out to elucidate a number of contentious debates over the influence of women on poor law policy and the development of feminism at the local level. . . . To illustrate Haslam's activities and the principles behind them, King also makes effective use of her travel diaries and her papers on the campaign for women's suffrage in Britain. Hers was not only an interesting but also a well-documented life. . . . To a reader interested in the poor law, therefore, the book has much to offer in the way of details of administration on a local level . . . but the principal function of poor law administration in this study is as a pathway to involvement in local politics and the feminist movement. To the study of these issues, the book is certainly a valuable contribution." - Journal of Social History, "A fascinating and provocative book. . . . King, inspired by Haslam's political life, attempts to fuse the history of welfare with the history of women's activism, aiming to rewrite both in the process. . . . A very attractive volume, which has something to offer all those interested in women's lives in the Victorian and Edwardian periods." -- Choice, "This is an interesting local and biographical study. . . King provides a vivid and valuable picture of philanthropy and public service among middle-class men and women in one town, and rightly comments that if we are fully to understand activities so important to late Victorian and Edwardian society and politics we need many more such studies, which for this period are all too few." - English Historical Review, "This is an interesting local and biographical study. . .
