註釋Lifting Horizons is a lively account of the remarkable life of Anna Elizabeth Jerome Spencer (1872-1955). Hundreds of young women knew her as their headmistress at Napier Girls' High School. Tens of thousands of New Zealand women came to know her as Jerome Spencer, founder and leader of the New Zealand Women's Institutes. Yet, as this meticulously researched biography highlights, she packed into her life a number of 'hidden lives', including scholar, orchardist, apiarist, spiritualist, photographer, explorer, weaver, editor nurse and women's police patroller.
