Invisible Women

Résumé du livre

"Women have played a major role in the settlement and history of Eastern Ontario, yet until recently they have been virtually invisible. In local histories women are often conspicuous by their absence yet they were the backbone of our society. The book contains chapters on, the journey to the area in the early days of settlement, life in the home, women's work, marriage and widowhood, health and mortality, education, religion, recreation, suffrage and more."--Back cover.
