'Inspiring, funny and thoughtful' Rosemary Hill, Guardian
'Warm and funny ... an education to us all' Independent on Sunday
At the end of the nineteenth century, when the female brain was considered five ounces lighter than the male brain, five women bravely enrolled at university for the first time in Britain.
From wildly different backgrounds and with only a passion for learning in common, they faced dismissal as mere 'bonnets' and wild rioting when a vote was taken to offer these 'undergraduettes' a recognised degree. But from teachers and parents they enjoyed unimaginable kindnesses.
Through the inspiring and moving words of the women themselves, Jane Robinson explores the sacrifices they made, the prejudice they met, and the determination, friendship and knowledge they found through their ground-breaking, hard-won educations.
'A story of widening horizons, lifelong friendships ... and, above all, the joy of learning' Economist
'Modern girls need reminding of the long battle, and Jane Robinson's fine book does just that' Libby Purves, Mail on Sunday
'Fascinating. Inspiring. Impassioned and wonderfully entertaining' Scotsman
