100 years of the WI: The acceptable face of feminism

Professor Maggie Andrews discusses some of the key campaigns and
concerns of the Women's Institute, from its origins in the First
World War to the 1950s when, with half a million members, it was
firmly established as the largest women's organisation in
Britain.


Maggie is a Professor of Cultural History at the University of
Worcester; she has published widely on women, domesticity and the
home front in 20th century Britain.
