The second volume of Women from Hackney’s History was published on International Women’s Day 2025, exactly four years after the first book appeared. Together covering 228 women who have strong links to today’s London Borough, they range in date from the fifteenth century to the 2020s. The research, writing, editing and designing were all carried out by local women. The books have been published by the Hackney Society and Hackney History.
