Ethel Smyth climbed fences, explored graveyards, and yearned to become a famous composer at a time when only men could publisher their music.

She even composed the famous 'March of the Women' battle cry--and directed it from her cell window with a toothbrush when she was put in prison."--  |c Page 4 of cover.
