Religious martyrs, actresses, writers, sportswomen, and murderesses are among the women who, born in Lincolnshire, or coming to the county to live, leave their enduring mark on its past and present. Little has been written about the lives of Lincolnshire women of different times, societies and outlooks until the engrossing insights of this book by a well-known local historian and author. Among the women included in this volume are Enid Blyton - authoress, Eliza Joyce - murderess, Madge Kendal - actress and Brenda Fisher - swimming champion.
