Captain James Cook (1728 - 1779)
Emmeline Pankhurts (1728- 1928)
Aneurin Bevan (1897- 1960)
I have chosen to work with these significant people as they have captured my attention. As a child I loved to explore my grandfathers farm and ever since have travelled to amazing places with my family, for this reason Captain James Cook was an obvious choice. As a young woman I have grown to appreciate greatly the sacrifice woman such as Emmeline Pankhurts have made so that we women can vote and are seen more as equals. This is so important to our culture and young girls should have strong women leaders as example every day. Lastly, Aneurin Bevan is a figure I have grown up knowing from being in Welsh education, so naturally is someone that has been a part of my history.
For my e-book I have put them together because they are all people who have changed their fields, or have stood up to change something they were very passionate about. The dates that they worked and lived overlapped a little but there's a fairly broad period of time in history for difference in culture, such as clothes, rigths, quality of life.
