About the new book:

Discover the previously untold stories of 200 incredible women from Bath. You will find 26 suffragists, six artists, four doctors, two pioneering police officers and one big-hearted chicken… plus many more besides. These women come from all walks of life and all parts of the city, spanning laundresses and workhouse inmates to theatre revolutionaries and city councillors. Every woman featured in these pages has made her mark on this city and deserves her moment in the sun.
