Includes bibliographical references and index. CC BY-NC-ND Experts in womanhood: morality and social order before and during the First World War -- Patrolling the port: interwar moral surveillance -- Regulating interwar prostitution: national debates and local issues -- Finding respectable work for women in interwar Liverpool -- White slavery and social purists' authority -- Female 'traffickers' and urban danger -- Irish girls in Liverpool (I): interwar moral concerns -- Irish girls in Liverpool (2): the Second World War and the post-war year -- A changing of the guard: moral order, gender and urban space in the post-war years. Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 20 Nov 2019). <i>Save the Womanhood</i> is a fascinating new history about promiscuity, prostitution and the efforts of local social purists to 'save' working-class women from themselves. The book examines how the work of the Liverpool Vigilance Association was supplemented by others, such as the Women Police Patrols, the Liverpool House of Help and the local branch of the Catholic Women's League. It argues that though these organizations helped many lost and stranded women, their work also enacted a form of moral surveillance on the streets. As such, the book uncovers how important twentieth-century anxieties about changing sexual practices, female immigration, white slavery and the rise of new consumer cultures played out at local level and with what consequences for women in Liverpool. The book also brings together a wide range of local and national sources to show that when female-run, local organizations concerned about immorality went into decline in the post-war years, it was because official institutions and local law enforcement had increasingly taken up their cause. Consequently, Save the Womanhood argues that young, working-class women who travelled through Liverpool in search of work and adventure continued to arouse moral anxiety even as the city's social purists battled to maintain their influence.
