The Road to Greenham Common: Feminism and Anti-Militarism in Britain since 1820

In The Road to Greenham Common, Jill Liddington draws on handwritten diaries, little-known autobiographies, forgot­ten minute books, and life-story interviews with peace activists. Her richly researched work disen­tangles the different and often complex feminist analyses of militarism from the aftermath of the Napoleonic Wars to the end of the Cold War offering a major reappraisal of the women's peace movement from its beginnings to the present day. Liddington—among other things—provides an understanding of the "long road" that led to the anti-nuclear movement of the 1980s.
