WARRIOR QUEENS AND QUIET REVOLUTIONARIES (HB)

This beautifully illustrated dictionary of women is a love letter to family history and a personal memoir about the nature of women’s struggles to be heard and their achievements acknowledged. Within these pages you’ll meet nearly 1000 women whose names deserve to be better known: from warrior queens and pirate commanders to the women who dedicated their lives to the natural world or to medicine; women of courage who resisted and fought for what they believed, and the unsung heroes of stage, screen and stadium.
