Thought-provoking insights into the beginnings of the women's rights movementBy Rebekka K. StegThe Hard Way Up is the thought-provoking autobiography of Hannah Mitchell who in spite of her upbringing valued education and fought, first for the rights of the working class and then for the rights of women. I was dismayed, although not surprised, to see how frequently the suffragettes were ignored and disregarded by the socialists - even as they had frequently fought alongside them to secure rights of the working class. Too often the majority, those with privilege, have no problem accepting the help and support of the minority and those without privilege, but when it comes to giving back and fighting for the rights of minority it is suddenly no longer of importance.The Hard Way Up is a fascinating insight into a different, but incredibly important time that laid the foundation of many of the same issues we still see today. -

The Women of Red Clydeside the Women of Red Clydeside
THE WOMEN OF RED CLYDESIDE THE WOMEN OF RED CLYDESIDE: WOMEN MUNITIONS WORKERS IN THE WEST OF SCOTLAND DURING THE FIRST WORLD WAR By MYRA BAILLIE, B.A., M.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School ofGraduate Studies in Partial Fulfilment ofthe Requirements for the Degree Doctor ofPhilosophy McMaster University © Copyright by Myra Baillie, September 2002 DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (2002) McMaster University (History) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: The Women ofRed Clydeside: Women Munitions Workers in the West ofScotland during the First World War. AUTHOR: Myra Baillie, B.A., M.A. (McMaster University) SUPERVISOR: Professor R.A. Rempel NUMBER OF PAGES: x,320 11 ABSTRACT During World War One, the Clydeside region became one ofthe most important centres ofwar production in Britain. It also had one ofthe most volatile male workforces, earning it the reputation 'Red' Clydeside. Previous historical accounts have focussed on the skilled workers, debating the extent to which they were red-hot revolutionaries or narrow craft conservatives. To date, there has been no study ofthe region's large, capable, hard-working female workforce. This thesis traces the experience ofthe tens ofthousands ofwomen employed in the Clydeside munitions industry, paying particular attention to the working conditions in local factories. This thesis contributes to the long-standing historiographical arguments over the nature ofRed Clydeside by offering a new view ofthe dilution crisis which stands 11t the epicentre ofthe debate. It finds more cooperation between male and female munitions workers than has previously been recognized, and suggests that class confrontation, not craft conservatism, was at the root ofthe deportation ofthe shop steward leaders in March 1916. -

William Pember Reeves, Writing the Fortunate Isles
WILLIAM PEMBER REEVES, WRITING THE FORTUNATE ISLES MEG TASKER Federation University, Ballarat In all its phases, the career of William Pember Reeves was shaped by overlapping social and cultural identities. From his childhood as an English migrant in New Zealand being groomed to join the colonial ruling class, to his advocacy of Greek independence and chairmanship of the Anglo-Hellenic League in his last decades, Reeves illustrates the kind of mobility across social as well as national and geographical borders that calls for the use of the term ‘transnational colonial’ rather than ‘expatriate.’1 He has this in common with many Australasian writers at the turn of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. This paper will focus on how he ‘wrote New Zealand,’ particularly after his move to London in 1896 as Agent-General. The expression ‘transnational colonial,’ coined by Ken Gelder in relation to popular fiction (Gelder 1), conveys the cultural hybridity of the late nineteenth century Australasian abroad without imposing a rigidly ‘centre/margins’ structure of imperial power relations. The term ‘transnational’ stresses the existence of two-way or multiple exchanges of influences and ideas between colonial and metropolitan writers, publishers, readers, and markets. Such an approach to colonial/imperial cultural relationships has been developed by postcolonial critics and historians such as John Ball in Imagining London: Postcolonial Fiction and the Transnational Metropolis (2004), Angela Woollacott in To Try Her Fortune in London (2001), and Andrew Hassam, in Through Australian Eyes: Colonial Perceptions of Imperial Britain (2000). Similarly, in their excellent study of late colonial writing, Maoriland: New Zealand Literature 1872-1914, Jane Stafford and Mark Williams argue that ‘empire was an internationalising force in ways not often recognised. -
The Peak District Raptor Report 2019
THE PEAK DISTRICT RAPTOR REPORT 2019 SOUTH PEAK RAPTOR STUDY GROUP (SPRSG) & PEAK DISTRICT RAPTOR MONITORING GROUP (PDRMG) Members of the groups in 2019: SPRSG Co-ordinator: Trevor Grimshaw John Atkin Roy Frost Mick Lacey Kim Leyland Geoff Mawson Ant Messenger** Stephen Moores Steve Samworth** Ken Smith Mick Taylor Paul Thomas Paul Tooley** [** members of both groups] PDRMG Co-ordinator: Steve Davies Carl Ashford Nick Corley Jamie Dunning Tim Entwistle Andy Platts Mike Price Dave Simmonite Paul Stafford Mark Watson Andy Wright Jamie Horner [Peak District BoP Initiative] Front cover and above: Goshawks photographed by Ken Smith, SPRSG area, Derbyshire, Spring 2019 FOREWORD This is the ninth joint annual report from the two Raptor Groups who operate in the Peak District and surrounding areas. It is a comprehensive review of breeding successes and failures, conservation and persecution news affecting birds of prey, owls and Raven and is made possible by the close co-operation of the two groups along with landowners, shooting tenants, gamekeepers and statutory bodies. All fieldworkers operate under the BTO Ringing and Nest Recording schemes and are licensed for Schedule One species as appropriate. Both groups are founding members of the Northern England Raptor Forum (NERF). 2019 was a mixed year overall but it is pleasing to report a continuation of the improvement in the situation for breeding raptors in the Dark Peak which was beginning to become apparent in 2018. Especially noteworthy is the excellent improvements of successful breeding on the National Trust estates and adjacent bordering forestry recently. A combination of the work that the RSPB have done in the area, the introduction of the National Trust Moorland Vision and the National Trust stance over illegal persecution and the efforts of their shooting tenants have all played a major role in contributing to what we hope will be a sustained improvement, both in terms of overall numbers but also productivity, of the larger raptor species. -

Landscape-Strategy-Dark-Peak.Pdf
www.peakdistrict.gov.uk 3: Dark Peak Peak District National Park Authority Dark Peak Dark Peak open moorland © Peak District National Park Authority Introduction The Dark Peak is a sparsely settled area of gritstone uplands lying at the southern end of the Pennine Hills. The area comprises an extensive upland plateau with steep gritstone slopes, sometimes with rocky edges, that drop away to lower lying slopes, wooded cloughs and deep valleys, some of which have been flooded to create large reservoirs. It contrasts sharply with the adjoining limestone uplands of the White Peak and is named on account of the dark hues created in the landscape by the peat moors and exposed gritstone. Whilst this landscape character area contrasts with the White Peak, the transition to other landscape character areas such as the Dark Peak Eastern and Western Fringe landscapes is much more gradual; these are landscapes of similar character but tend to be lower lying, more settled and more intensively managed than the Dark Peak with enclosed farmland rather than open moorland predominating. The Eastern Moors to the south-east of the Dark Peak are similar to it in character but lower lying with less deep peat creating a landscape that has been more obviously modified by people than the Dark Peak generally has. In the north, the moorland plateau of the Dark Peak continues into the Southern Pennines. 2 Landscape Strategy and Action Plan Peak District National Park Authority 3: Dark Peak such as the golden plover and the dunlin. On the lower moorland Physical influences slopes heather dominates, with varying amounts of bilberry, The Dark Peak is an extensive area of high moorland and adjacent cowberry and crowberry. -
