Emerging from the Shadow: The Lives of Sarah Anne Lawrenson and Lucy Olive Kingston.
Author: SWANTON, Daisy Lawrenson.
Dublin: Attic Press, 1994. 169 pages. Illustrated. Paperback.
Emerging from the Shadow is the story of two generations of women. The diaries of Sarah Lawrenson and her daughter Lucy Kingston give a wonderfully atmospheric picture of life in Wicklow and Dublin - from Dalkey to Rathmines - in the late nineteenth century.
Sarah Lawrenson courageously supported herself and her family after her husband died leaving her a small inheritance and four young children.
Lucy Kingston campaigned for the rights of women and peace. She became involved in the suffrage movement, the Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom and CND. Her story is full of personal social detail and political history
Emerging from the Shadow represents another piece heretofore missing from modern Irish history.
