Description:
The glittering story of April Ashley, model and trans pioneer, and the divorce case which gripped 1960s Britain and defined transgender rights for a generation.
As Britain emerged from post-war austerity in the 1960s, no one embodied its newfound spirit of hedonism and glamour like April Ashley. A fashion model and socialite who rose from poverty in Liverpool to the heights of London society via Le Carrousel nightclub in Paris, she was also one of the first Britons to undergo gender-affirming surgery.
Ashley was appointed MBE for services to transgender equality in 2012, but her journey towards acceptance was hard-won and bitterly contested. In 1961, a friend sold her story to a tabloid and she was told that she would never work in the UK again. Her brief marriage to Arthur Corbett, the son of a baron, set off a high-profile divorce battle, resulting in a landmark 1970 decision denying transgender women legal status as women - and denying Ashley her husband's inheritance.
Drawing on a wide variety of sources, award-winning biographers Jacqueline Kent and Tom Roberts tell the full story of April Ashley's extraordinary life at the vanguard of the sexual revolution and the movement for trans equality.
'The book has a pleasant tone. Its authors, Jacqueline Kent and Tom Roberts, give a lesson in amiable tolerance and handle other thorny subjects without a touch of militancy. Their lesson seems to be that only fools rush in to judge what they cannot understand.'
-Richard Davenport-Hines, The Times
'April's extraordinarily courageous and pioneering personal journey

Great sink organizer
Color: Black, Size: 9.25″
Great sink organizer to keep things out of the way and tidy. Very easy to assembly and it comes with rubber feet to help prevent it from sliding around. It is very light though so if you dont have a heavy bottle to weigh it down, it can be easy to knock over.

Works!
Color: Black, Size: 9.25″
I'd been looking at this type of thing for almost a year. I thought it was probably one of those gadget things that never really work. I finally took a chance and so glad I did. This one works! It keeps my counter clean and water free. It's sturdy and I never worry about it tipping over.

Good Value
Color: Black, Size: 9.25″, Color: Black, Size: 9.25″
This sink caddy is really practical and helps keep the kitchen sink area organized. It holds sponges and brushes neatly, and the self-draining design works well to keep things from getting soggy. A simple but very useful addition to the kitchen.
