Title: Edwardian ladies and imperial power
Description: "Drawing on many previously unexploited sources, this book evaluates the nature and impact of organized female imperialism in Edwardian Britain. It analyses aristocratic and upper-middle-class women's involvement in imperialist associations and investigates their relationship with male imperialist leaders and the male-dominated patriotic leagues. The 'women's work' of female emigration, education, colonial hospitality and imperial 'race-thinking' is also closely examined."--BOOK JACKET.
