'Makes the case for Annie Besant as a truly eminent Victorian, as brilliant and fearless as she was beautiful' The Times<BR>_________<BR><BR>London, 1877. A petite young woman stands before an all-male jury, about to risk everything. She takes a breath, and opens her defence.<BR><BR>Annie Besant and her confidant Charles Bradlaugh are on trial for the crime of publishing a birth control pamphlet. Remarkably, Annie is defending herself against obscenity charges 45 years before women can practice law in England. At a time when women were expected to be obedient, Annie's fearless voice was a sensation and spotlighted issues of sex, censorship and morality.<BR><BR>A Dirty, Filthy Book tells the gripping story of a little-known pioneer who refused to accept the role that the establishment assigned her, and chose instead to resist.
