PART I: 'A DOOR OPEN, A DOOR SHUT' -- On the Street -- Danger en Route -- Behind Closed Doors: Bogey-Husbands in Disguise: Mona Caird's The Wing of Azrael (1889) -- PART II: FIGHTING FOR EMANCIPATION -- Elizabeth Robins' The Convert -- The Last Heroine Left? -- PART III: THE PRE-WAR FEMALE GAZE -- 'Where Are You Going To, My Pretty Maid?': Elizabeth Robins on White Slavery -- Read My Lips.

The topic of women and danger has long fascinated historians. This book innovatively situates both well-known and more obscure themes within the cultural context of the development of self-defence for ladies during the period from circa 1850 to 1914. Elizabeth Robins, Mona Caird and Anne Bronte considered the role of physiognomy in spotting rogue suitors, the nature of feminine anger and the dangers inside and outside the home. H.G. Wells's controversial novel, "Ann Veronica" (1909), is refreshingly re-examined as a testament to the growth of women's sports while the accompanying proliferation of women's martial arts classes was promoted by Edith Garrud, the trainer for the suffragette Bodyguard. Richard Marsh's detective, Judith Lee, a lip-reader and jujitsu practitioner, has been likened to Sherlock Holmes; her encounters with the Edwardian criminal underworld are explored here. Emelyne Godfrey introduces major themes in this area, showcasing a wealth of literary sources, artefacts and archival documents.
