About this book
Description
A Guide To Places, Memorials, And the Arts Commemorating New Zealand Women by Jill Pierce
The Suffrage Trail by Jill Pierce is not a traditional narrative novel, but a historical guidebook documenting the places, memorials, artworks, and landmarks created to commemorate New Zealand women and the women’s suffrage movement.
Published in 1995 by the National Council of Women of New Zealand, the book traces the legacy of the 1893 achievement that made New Zealand the first self-governing nation to grant women the right to vote. Rather than following a single storyline, the book acts as a “trail,” guiding readers through gardens, plaques, sculptures, murals, buildings, parks, trees, and public artworks connected to suffrage history and notable New Zealand women.
Pierce highlights important figures such as Kate Sheppard and explores how communities across the country commemorated the centenary of women’s suffrage in 1993. The book combines history, biography, geography, and cultural heritage, encouraging readers to physically visit and reflect on the sites that honour women’s contributions to New Zealand society.
Overall, the book serves as both:
a historical reference to the women’s suffrage movement in New Zealand, and
a travel-style guide to memorials and artistic tributes celebrating women’s achievements.
Good: Tidy condition.
