Every Woman Remembered cover

Seven Newport women died in the Great War. Only four of them are commemorated on the Newport Roll of Honour. This book rights that omission and also pays tribute to the work of other Newport women who survived the war. It celebrates the lives and sacrifices of suffragettes, munitionettes, philanthropists, nurses and those who volunteered for the newly-formed women's services. Life for women was never to be the same again as they took giant steps towards a more equal society. At home and abroad, they contributed to the amazing changes for women in the world created by the war to end all wars.

After reading this book, I felt intensely proud of these magnificent Newport women of whom I knew little beforehand. Sylvia must be congratulated for undertaking such a worthwhile project. Dame Rosemary Butler DBE
