About this product

Product Information

Quiet Rebels tells the stories of 187 women who were called to the Ontario bar between 1897 and 1957, identifying gendered patterns of exclusion. It also explores women lawyers' experiences in later decades, when many more women entered the legal profession, assessing the extent of "changes" or "continuities" for some women lawyers.

Reviews
This brilliant and innovative 'group biography' of pioneering women lawyers in Ontario gives voice to those mostly overlooked women. In doing so, it also sensitively explores the still elusive issues surrounding the relationships between inclusion/diversity and representation/reformulation and asks if what they began was the transformation or merely a slightly altered continuation of the traditional in the legal profession and the practice of law.Highly recommended.
