      abstract = {"This is the first full length biography of radical  reformer Stella Browne, whose life, ideas and activities  overturn so many assumptions about early twentieth-century  politics and feminism. Stella Brown offers her biographer a  window onto many neglected areas of twentieth-century  history, and this context is vividly brought to life in  this book. Lesley Hall's biography explores Stella Browne's  life and times, from her upbringing in Nova Scotia into her  political apprenticeship and life from militant suffragism  in the early 1900s through her internationalism and  involvement with Margaret Sanger and the birth control and  sex-reform movements, her work among pacifist, Communist  and feminist circles in North America, the UK and  Continental Europe. Her relations with such as Rebecca  West, Winifred Holtby, Havelock Ellist, Dora Russell and  C.K. Ogden are central to the biography. Based on extensive  and new research in primary sources in Britain, Europe and  North America and on Stella Browne's own copious (and  scattered) writings, this biography gives as rounded a  portrait as is possible of this vivid and original woman,  whose life and ideas are shown to have been well before her  time"--Publisher description.},
