A reprint of the class book.
Set in a small town in Edwardian England, Regiment of Women is about the relationship between two teachers at a private (and elitist) girls' school. One of them, Clare Hartill, is in her mid-thirties and runs the school in all but name, the ageing and sickly headmistress depending on her whenever a decision has to be taken concerning the school or any of its pupils.
Most of the girls are devoted to Hartill and gladly suffer under her strict but charismatic rule and the loads of homework she sets them, mainly to prove to her and to themselves that they are more academically advanced than she told them they were. Hartill lives alone near the school in a small, old-fashioned flat full of books but without gas or electricity.
Clemence Dane was the pseudonym of Winifred Ashton (1888-1965), an English novelist and playwright. She was an artist, teacher, and actress before she turned to writing. An extremely prolific writer, Ashton authored thirty novels and sixteen plays over the course of her lifetime. Ashton also won an Academy Award for the screenplay of the 1945 film Vacation from Marriage.
