1900 - A Brand New Century

by Carol Drinkwater

The diary of Flora Bonnington, London 1899-1900: 'A day slips away like sand in a sand glass and so we are caught up in this inevitable passage towards 1900. I bought a journal... it will record my journey into the new century. I shall call it 'Twentieth Century Girl' for that is what I intend to be'. Flora lives in a world where it is considered unattractive for a lady to express an opinion, but Flora longs to change things: she wants to vote and make sure everyone can have an education. But can she really make a stand against society, and her father? With accurate historical detail.
