In a carefully crafted merging of imagery and text, ‘Road to Repeal’ provides exceptional insight into the 50-year journey of the struggle for contraception and abortion in Ireland. Road to Repeal is a not-for-profit publication and the National Women's Council is extremely grateful to be in receipt of the royalties. If you'd like to support our work, buying this book for yourself or as a gift is a great way of doing so.
‘Amazing history, very pertinent now.’
Margaret Atwood
‘What emanates from the huge number of images is the bravery of those who stood up against the misogyny that hemmed women and others in … an informative timeline, a vital reminder and a visual education in the waves of activism that kept coming, no matter how those who held power in Irish society attempted to stymie them.’
Una Mullaly, Irish Times
