this is one of those book that i think should be read by a students to show them what especially women in history worked for and through to bring on changes and why it’s so important to keep on going for a good and important cause!
defiantly worth a read!

I read this the week of International Women's Day and it made me feel all the feels. The style is readable, the chapters are structured well to progress both the story and her research, and ultimately it is an uplifting and empowering read.

I’ve been wanting to read a book about Harriet Martineau for a long time and when I saw this book available to request, I knew I had to read it and I am glad I was approved.

A great book that discusses Martineau’s influences and ideas, ‘Encounters..’ goes into detail about her life in a way that makes it incredibly easy to read and gives you access to the sources so you can go and research for yourself more about the topic.

I like also how the author writes, it’s easy to read but also the way the chapters work going through the decades and showing where the influences on her work begin really works and it made for a fantastic biography of her life.

This book makes me want to know more and I think that makes for great Non Fiction.
