In the publisher's original unclipped dust wrapper, illustrated by Woolf's sister, Vanessa Bell.Woolf's essay confronts three questions: How should war be prevented? Why does the government not support education for women? Why are women not allowed to engage in professional work? Originally conceived as a work of fiction and non-fiction simultaneously, with one half of the work dedicated to each style, Woolf eventually divided the work; the fiction portion became Woolf's most popular novel during her lifetime, 'The Years'. Illustrated with five photographic plates. Collated, complete.A fascinating work written shortly before the onset of war, the views Woolf expresses in this essay have been described as feminist, pacifist, anti-fascist, and anti-imperialist.
