FROM SUFFRAGETTE TO HOMESTEADER

Exploring British and Canadian Colonial Histories and Women’s Politics through Memoir

Edited by Emily van der Meulen

Central to this book is a memoir written in 1952 by Ethel Marie Sentance. Beginning in 1883, it details Ethel’s life as a suffragette in her early twenties and then her later life as a homesteader in Saskatchewan. Surrounding Ethel’s memoir are chapters by leading historians and life-writing scholars that provide further analysis and context, exploring topics within and beyond those written about by Ethel.
