Reviews
"Galt's wonderfully original and thoroughly researched book makes a vital contribution to women's history, expanding our understanding of women's experience and gender equality struggles in the film and TV industries." Arthur McIvor, University of Strathclyde
"Makes a major contribution to the historiography of women in the British screen industries, women and trade unionism, and feminist activism, through a unique longitudinal study of the relationship between women and one British craft trade union... This illuminating book will be a vital resource not only for scholars of women's production histories but also for researchers of women's work more broadly." Journal of British Cinema and Television
