A MUST Have!

This is a wonderful book...one of those types that you can't find "good enough" words to do it justice. I bought this book after browsing through B & N for several hours one day. I was a little hesitant, because of the cost, but man! It was worth it! This is one of those books that after I haven't looked at it for a month or two, I take it off of the shelf & spend hours with it all over again. This book is a wonderful sonnet of the history of women in America!!

Fascinating

This book, in words and photographs, details the lives of women in our country from its inception. The author does a wonderful job of showing what it was like to be a woman throughout the history of this country. She profiles many courageous, inspiring women who have made a tremendous difference in the lives of others. The photographs alone are worth the price of this book; the text makes it priceless. Thank you, Donna Lucey, for writing this!
