    Some Eminent Women Of Our Times: Short Biographical Sketches is a book written by Millicent Garrett Fawcett in 1889. The book is a collection of biographical sketches of some of the most prominent women of the time, including writers, educators, social reformers, and activists. Fawcett, herself a notable suffragist and women's rights advocate, provides a detailed description of each woman's life and achievements, highlighting their contributions to society and the challenges they faced in a male-dominated world. The book features profiles of famous women such as Florence Nightingale, Elizabeth Barrett Browning, and George Eliot, as well as lesser-known figures who made significant contributions to their fields.

    Dame Millicent Garrett Fawcett was a British feminist, intellectual, political and union leader, and writer. She is primarily known for her work as a campaigner for women to have the vote. As a suffragist (as opposed to a suffragette), she took a moderate line, but was a tireless campaigner. She concentrated much of her energy on the struggle to improve women's opportunities for higher education and in 1875 co-founded Newnham College, Cambridge.

    Reminiscent of the Brontës' Jane Eyre and The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, Millicent Garrett Fawcett's Janet Doncaster chronicles a young woman's struggle for independence. With no fortune, no family to support her, and no practical skills enabling her to earn a living, Janet is lured into an unwanted marriage and must confront an uncertain future.Dame Millicent Garrett Fawcett (1847-1929), known today for her leadership of the British constitutional suffrage movement, distinguished herself initially as an author of works on political economy and women's rights. Her only novel, first published in 1875, explores the politics of marriage and domesticity at a time when middle-class women were actively challenging the sexual double standard in the realms of law, education, work, and family. Janet Doncaster anticipates the concerns of the New Woman novel, combining Fawcett's astute political insight with a compelling tale of fidelity, betrayal, and self-determination.This new edition includes a critical introduction by Lise Shapiro Sanders, explanatory notes, and extensive additional contextual material, including selected writings by Millicent Garrett Fawcett and other early feminist activists; contemporaneous accounts of efforts to reform the laws affecting marriage, divorce, and women's property; Victorian writings on liberalism, political economy, and temperance; and reviews of the novel from the period.
