Episode 24 - The Women Who Built Bristol

This week I met with author Jane Duffus, to discuss her new book 'The Women Who Built Bristol'. This work of collective biography tells the story of some 250 women connected with Bristol, ranging from the 12th century to the present day. We discuss the origins of the project, the history of the women's suffrage movement in Bristol and Jane gives a preview of a few of the most interesting women who feature in her book.
