Areas explored include property, inheritance, adoption, marriage, access to health care, criminal law, employment opportunities, pay, pensions and political representation. It also examines campaigns by key women's organisations, and assesses the impact of early women lawyers and politicians. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhile some of the landmarks effected change during this period, others provided the foundation for measures in later decades. Together the landmarks demonstrate that far from being a relatively quiet period of British feminism, the interwar period played a key role in ongoing fights for recognition, representation and justice.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRosemary Auchmuty\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor of Law at the University of Reading, UK.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eErika Rackley\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor of Law at the University of Kent, UK.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eMari Takayanagi\u003c\/b\u003e is Senior Archivist at the Parliamentary Archives, UK.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 312\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.65 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 19, 2026\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51180141314354,"sku":"9781509969760","price":113.11,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0961\/1608\/0946\/files\/c6dbLxuI6D9781509969760.webp?v=1779274273","url":"https:\/\/deskinlawfirm.com\/products\/womens-legal-landmarks-in-the-interwar-years-not-for-want-of-trying-paperback","provider":"DLF Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
