"Dying for the Vote: A Key Stage 3 Depth Study on the Chartists and the Suffragettes" by Ian Dawson explores the pivotal struggles for voting rights in the UK during the 19th and early 20th centuries. The book examines the actions and sacrifices made by the Chartists, who fought for the rights of working-class men, and the suffragettes, who championed women's right to vote. Through engaging narratives, primary sources, and critical analysis, it highlights the determination and bravery of those who faced imprisonment, violence, and even death in their quest for a more democratic society. This study encourages students to understand the significance of voting rights and their historical context. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
