Female imperialism and national identity
Katie Pickles
"Through a detailed study of the Imperial Order Daughters of the Empire, or the IODE, the British Empire's largest women's patriotic organisation, this book examines the relationship between female imperialism and national identity. It throws new light on women's involvement in imperialism; on the history of 'conservative' women's organisations; on women's interventions in debates concerning citizenship and national identity; and on the history of women in white settler societies." "This important study of a fascinating organisation will be of interest to historians of Imperial History, Gender Studies and Postcolonial Studies."--Jacket.
