You are
warmly invited
Victoria University Press invite you to
the launch of Sue Upton's Wanted, a Beautiful Barmaid: Women Behind the Bar in New
Zealand, 1830-1976
Wanted, a Beautiful Barmaid is a social
history of women in the liquor trade and the controls, social and legal,
written and unwritten, with which they had to contend. It begins in the
1830s when control over the sale of alcohol was first mooted and ends in
1976, when the last of the regulations that applied specifically to
females was removed.
Please join author, Sue Upton, and guest speaker, Charlotte McDonald, for
the launch of this fascinating history.
Thistle Inn, 3
Mulgrave Street, Thorndon
Monday 15 July, 6pm
All welcome.
