Sheila Rowbotham (University of Manchester) will discuss her new book Rebel Crossings: New Women, Free Lovers, and Radicals in Britain and the United States, which relates the interweaving lives of four women and two men as they journey from the nineteenth to the twentieth century, from Britain to America, from Old World conventions toward New World utopias.

Sheila Rowbotham, who helped start the women’s liberation movement in Britain, is known internationally as an historian of feminism and radical social movements.

The talk will be followed by a drinks reception in Grimond Foyer.
