                                         Chin Up, Girls!: A Book of Women's Obituaries from the Daily Telegraph

                                                                            Published by John Murray, 2005, hardcover, index, 362 pages, condition: as new.


This is an inimitable collection of outrageous and unforgettable 20th-century women who refused to fulfill society's expectations. Their company includes the woman who survived 4 months adrift in a dinghy in the Pacific and the woman who played professional polo disguised as a man for 15 years, as well as the inimitable Dame Barbara Cartland and Fanny Cradock. Very few of the women featured were "celebrities," yet their stories represent a century of progress and change, capturing the spirit of those who came of age between Emancipation and the Equal Opportunities Act, whether high life or low life, pioneers or bluestockings.

Katharine Ramsay read history at Cambridge and worked as a member of the Number 10 Policy Unit under John Major. She joined the Daily Telegraph obituaries desk in 1997 and is married with two children. Georgia Powell was educated at University College, Oxford. She has worked on television documentaries for the BBC and Channel Four and joined the Daily Telegraph obituaries desk in 2000. She is married with two children.
