Condición: Good. FIRST EDITION, WITH AUTHORIAL INSCRIPTION. 8vo, pp. [x], [228] + b/w frontispiece. Umber cloth, spine lettered in gilt (faded). Spine cocked, light wear and bruising to extremities. Foxing to front and rear, rust shadow from paperclip, Markham's apt and fond dedication in blue pen to half-title: "To Margaret Bailey/ with love from her old friend/ Violet Markham/ November 1956," plus Bailey's POI in both pencil and pen to front pastedown and ffep. Else, clean. Good. Violet Markham (1872-1959) was a writer, colonial administer and dedicated social reformer; she campaigned to end the appalling working conditions of women in the 'sweated trades,' held the deputy directorship of the women's section of the National Service League and became the first female Mayor of Chesterfield in 1927. Like Erin Pizzey decades later (see our inscribed copy of Infernal Child) the significant work Markham undertook for women is troubled by her early stance on women's suffrage, against which she vociferously campaigned in 1912. A collection of biographical pieces featuring individuals from Markham's wide friendship circle, fostered in part by her financially independent metropolitan lifestyle, and which facilitated various government appointments. Includes chapters about Dr Thomas Jones, Sir Ernest Budge, Mary Macarthur, John Buchan, Countess Rose Racznyska, Mackenzie King and Sir Robert Morant.

FIRST EDITION, INSCRIBED BY AUTHOR. 8vo, pp. 72 + b/w photographic frontis. Original beige cloth, spine lettered in gilt. Extremities bumped, dint to leading edge of upper board. Top edge toned. Inscribed by Markham in blue ink to half-title: "To Dame Mary Smieton, from Violet Markham, June 1955," bands of offsetting to endpapers, toned, echo of dint into leading edge of text block. Else, clean and tight. In the original typographical dust jacket: spine darkened, rubbed and delicate at joints, chipped at ends, darkened at edges, faint grease spot and short closed tear to front panel. Very good/ good+ A pre-eminent association copy of the social reformer Violet Markham's portrait of May Tennant, "distinguished pioneer in the field of social progress and reform," inscribed to another distinguished civil servant and pioneer in the field, Dame Mary Smieton. Among the first cohort of women to sit the administrative grade Civil Service exams in 1925, Mary Smieton (1902-2005) was a woman of firsts: the first woman to serve as private secretary to a minister in 1933 and the first director of personal for the United Nations in New York, as well as "only the second woman (the first being Dame Evelyn Sharp) to head a government department when she was appointed permanent secretary in the Ministry of Education in 1959". She had also assisted Lady Reading in founding the Women's Voluntary Service in 1938 and was "a leading light," along with Evelyn Sharp and Alix Kilroy, in the Council of Women Civil Servants. Rathgar-born May Tennant (née Abraham; 18691946) was a civil servant, trade unionist, factory inspector, and campaigner, who worked to improve conditions for industrial workers and became one of the first female inspectors of factories. She was an early recipient of the Order of the Companions of Honour in 1917. Tennant's near contemporary, Violet Markham (1872-1959) was a writer, colonial administer and dedicated social reformer; she campaigned to end the appalling working conditions of women in the 'sweated trades,' held the deputy directorship of the women's section of the National Service League and became the first female Mayor of Chesterfield in 1927. This significant work Markham undertook on behalf of working women, however, is troubled by her early stance on women's suffrage, against which she vociferously campaigned in 1912.
