Governor to launch CQU Press book on women's suffrage 

Queensland Cabinet Ministers and female MPs are expected at the Australian launch of CQU Press' latest publication, 'From Suffragists to Legislators: Queensland Women in State and Federal Parliaments', written by John McCulloch.

Queensland Governor Quentin Bryce AC will launch the two-volume set from 1pm on Thursday, August 25, in the Legislative Council Chamber of Parliament House in Brisbane.

CQU Press publisher Professor David Myers said the launch would commemorate 100 years of women's suffrage in Queensland.

The book provides a comprehensive account of how the suffragists won the vote for women, and of the female members of parliament who took that struggle further with their contribution as the people's elected representatives.
