The Mens Share?: Masculinities

The opposition of men to womens suffrage is well-known. However, mens support for womens suffrage is a neglected subject.

The Mens Share?, edited by Angela John and Claire Eustance, examines who these men were, how they organized themselves and how they put pressure on the government.
