Résumé
In 1922, Elizabeth Bethune Campbell, a Toronto-born socialite, began a fourteen-year-battle with the Ontario legal establishment over her mother's will, and to prove that her uncle had stolen funds from her mother's estate. In 1930, as a non-lawyer and Canadian,… she argued her case before the Privy Council in London - the first woman to do so. This is an annotated reprint of her self-published account of her campaign. 2004.
