Description

Discover the life and legacy of Agnes Macphail, Canada’s first woman elected to the House of Commons, in Agnes Macphail: Reformer by Doris Pennington.

This engaging Canadian biography explores Macphail’s political career, her determination to challenge the status quo, and her advocacy for causes including women’s rights, prison reform, pensions, agriculture, social justice, and peace. Pennington places Macphail’s achievements within the changing political and social landscape of twentieth-century Canada, offering insight into both her public work and the convictions that shaped it.

A valuable addition to any collection of Canadian history, women’s history, political biography, or Canadiana, this book will appeal to readers interested in the people who helped shape modern Canada.

This is a one-of-a-kind used copy—add Agnes Macphail: Reformer to your cart now before another Canadian-history reader claims it.
