About This Book
Very unlike Jerome's famous travelogues of the three men and a dog who go in a boat and on a bummel,
this four-act play deals with the right of women to vote and to be voted into the House of Commons. In a strange situation, husband and wife are pitted against each other in a parliamentary bye-election.Their very marriage is threatened as a result.
The play deals with issues in a manner far ahead of its time. It was published in 1911, whereas women actually got the right to vote only 1928.
