- W2334831490 abstract "This is an engaging study of the changing policies and practices that affected unmarried motherhood across the twentieth century. It is also a history of the growing advocacy and support role of the National Council for the Unmarried Mother and her Child (NC), founded in 1918. (It became the National Council for One Parent Families in 1973, and merged in 2007 with Gingerbread, the self-help support group founded in 1971.) This is a book that exemplifies what is to be gained from bringing full historical knowledge to bear on a central policy issue of continuing topical importance. Pat Thane and Tanya Evans have researched the archive of the NC and the relevant official and departmental reports, along with a wide range of memoirs and interviews. They have also drawn effectively on oral history, the social research organization Mass-Observation, and a great deal of other qualitative material in presenting the experiences of a selection of mothers and children (including several accounts from well-known individuals such as Catherine Cookson, Eric Clapton, and Pauline Prescott). This combination of sources makes for a readable, human, and satisfyingly analytical approach—a multidimensional “thick” chronology." @default.
