The achievement of the vote in 1918 is often celebrated as a triumphant moment in the onward, upward advancement of Canadian women. Acclaimed historian Joan Sangster looks beyond the shiny rhetoric of anniversary celebrations and Heritage Minutes to show that the struggle for equality included gains and losses, inclusions and exclusions, depending on a woman’s race, class, and location within the nation. She travels back in time to tell a new, more inclusive story for a new generation and exposes not only the fissures of inequality that cut deep into our country’s past but also their weaknesses in the face of resistance, optimism, and protest – an inspiring legacy that resonates to this day.

Автор: Douglas D. Martin Название: An Arizona Chronology: The Territorial Years, 1846?1912 ISBN: 0816535337 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780816535330 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 14170.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: An Arizona Chronology:The Territorial Years contains the first sheaves of a newspaperman's gleaning of history from the crisp, yellowing abundance of old newspapers and other Arizona archives. Later volumes will bring up to the present this readable chronology, compiled by an elder statesman of the printed word. Who better to choose news items giving a key to the times than Douglas D. Martin, who first set newspaper type when he was 15, filled news and magazine columns and book pages galore, and today at 75 is still writing for print? He knows newspapers from the composing room to the editor's desk—Detroit Free Press—not excepting reportorial beats, having received the Pulitzer Prize for reporting on his own. More recent highlights of Doug Martin's career have been "retirements"—from an editor's desk to head of Journalism at the University of Arizona; from there to a Library study where he wrote the history of the University, Lamp in the Desert, (UA Press, 1960), and before that, Tombstone's Epitaph and the best-seller Yuma Crossing.
