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 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. I highly recommend it to anyone with an interest in history, politics or women's rights.*I received an advanced copy through Netgalley in exchange for an honest review*0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Five StarsBy T. CardwellAn extraordinary account of an extraordinary woman edited by an extraordinary gentleman

“My readers may not find it a very thrilling story, but I hope it will reveal to them the early dreams, secret hopes and half-realized ambitions of one very ordinary woman...Looking back on my own life, I feel my greatest enemy has been the cooking stove — a sort of tyrant who has kept me in subjection.”'The Hard Way Up' is a unique and absorbing social document — a first-hand account of the life and struggles of a working-class woman who became a leader of the Suffragette and Labour movements in the north of England.Whereas most suffragettes came from the middle-class, this autobiography gives a different side of the picture.Hannah Mitchell was born in 1871 in the remote of . With only a fortnight’s formal schooling, she escaped from a tyrannical mother to the hard life of domestic service and the miseries of a clothing sweatshop. Marriage, motherhood followed, and through the years the sheer force of her character helped her to extraordinary achievements as a suffragette, Labour Party campaigner, speaker, writer and public figure in the city of .The story of her life, told with great simplicity and modesty, was found among her papers on her death. It is a record of extraordinary achievement, as well as standing as a fascinating account of social history which documents the lost rural traditions of agricultural England, and of the turbulent social and political changes of the early twentieth century. ‘A rare and fascinating picture of grassroots political involvement before the First World War and the personal experiences of a woman rebelling against sex and class injustice’ — Sheila Rowbotham, social historian.Hannah Mitchell (1871-1956) was a suffragette and Labour Party activist.Endeavour Press is the UK's leading independent digital publisher.
